love it. What did you use to get it?

I used my C8 Newt riding on a AVX mount, with a Canon 550D unmodded. I was guided but like I said I only went 300 sec on my exposures. I was starting to get a little chilly that night.

Again, it's a good shot, but the processing is very brown. You did get better contrast this time. What are you using to process these shots?

Well I processed with star tools, and I did bring a little color out but was not pleased with it, I may try and add a little more time to it, that should help, thanks for your input.

Very nice and with modest tools similar to mine. I, too, use an unmodded DSLR, a newtonian reflector and a AVX mount these days. Lance Armstrong famously stated, "It's not about the bike!" I think your image is a fitting analog to that.
