Photograph of the Clark 24" Refractor at Lowell Observatory, Flagstaff, AZ. Story can be found here.
2-photo mosaic, shot with a Canon 300D Digital Rebel, 15 sec., f/3.5, 21.0 mm focal length using kit lens, ISO 1600. Stitched together in Photoshop CS2. Curves selectively applied to sky and interior to bring out best contrast in both. Unsharp mask applied. Masked curves used to softly darken outer edges to keep focal point centered.
