Things we do....Corona Australis

Well what else would one do after 4 days and three nights at a cracker of a star party (SPSP) then a 4hr drive home and exhausted from 3-4hrs sleep a day...and then bloody spraining an ankle unloading the car......well? IMAGE of course

After grabbing the last bit of data for my NGC 3521 galaxy image before it set (already posted) I had a sparkling Milky Way still overhead with no clouds and no wind ...what to do?..go home? You should Mike, you are exhausted Mike......BAH! Imaging is for real men so I used the power of a 12" at F3.8 with sensitive camera..and bagged a complete LRGB image before twilight

I tried to produce a naturally dusty softness but still detailed image of the region, that respects the light

Corona Australis
