We had some great skies up at Lostock at IISAC2009, and I was able to capture some widefield images and some experimental stuff. This image is the first I’ve had a chance to process since coming back, and it’s my first attempt at “light painting“. It’s called “Milky Way For Sale” and was taken on Saturday night at IISAC2009. Please click the image to read more and see a larger version. Thanks for looking, -------------------- Mike . mikesalway.com.au - Astronomy and Photography by Mike Salway .
