- Additional notes
- I had to delay the shutter, get into position, stand still, and then reposition in the same position several times because I wanted to stack a few images to reduce image noise. I registered, warped and stacked in photoshop and also de-distorted the fisheye view, which is why it has black sides. ISO1600 for 20 seconds. I think I stacked four images.

I took a selfie of me at my scope in front of the Milky Way.
