I've been into astronomy since 2009 and its been a roller-coaster ride to get where I am now. Still a lot of things I need to learn and fix but I'm getting there slowly. Nothing special about this image I basically pointed at a random spot and took a few images and ran astrometry to get the star details.
The universe is interesting wherever you look.
Take care!
