Milky Way Wide Field

The sky was clear but the air very moist so set up 150snon lxd55 mount 80x400 for guide scope. But you guessed it when all set up the storm front appeared so I took this wide field, 180 secs, 800 iso and guided it manually which I dont usually bother with for wide field but I had not dialed in polar alignment. It was warmish and even at 180 secs you can notice the amp glow starting. But I was very happy cause I thought the moisture would not let me get anything. Great practice at setting up and putting away Milky Way is to the left and the Large Magelan Cloud upper right.
