Description

I had to wait five years before I was able to pay an astrophotographic visit to this well-known object. Either the conditions didn't allow it due to bad and inconsistent weather, or there was something wrong with the equipment. Just the normal astrophotographer fate.
Nevertheless, I used the last two nights shortly after the full moon to take this picture. Maybe you'll like it a bit.
