Antares wide field

[Lester]

Hi all, got this image a few nights ago with 20Da and 24mm lens at f2.2 . This image is 9x4 minute exposures.

Beautiful shot, Lester and pretty deep with that large aperture. It's filled with so much Milky Way that it's hard to make out the bottom part of Scorpius. Heaps of everyone's favourite winter objects in there.

Thanks Graeme for your comments.

Here is a re-pro, I think it is better?

That's a nice image Lester. Scorpion caught by the tail while escaping with the jewels. You have those dust lanes nicely defined.
