Lester,

Thanks, again!

Unfortunately it isn't my lens. It's Rocket Boy's! The camera was his, too.

The reason why I wanted to use his camera was because I had initially intended to image the Antares and Rho Ophiuchus region with that beautiful red. But, by the time I had finished drift aligning and taking test composition shots, it was too low, and after four exposures, it had sunk behind the trees.

Whilst the camera was still mounted, we decided to shoot some other targets.

It's a beautiful camera and a beautiful lens. Maybe one day in the very distant future... Until that time, I'll just hope someone feels kind enough to donate one for my birthday which is just around the corner.

Regards,
Humayun
