Image Description and Details : Taken over 4 nights with my 8" newtonian, there are approximately 12 hours total with a small addition of RGB integration purely for the color stars. While most people use SCNR to remove the green, I particularly enjoy it on this target; it adds a nice taste of color depth. I am also fond of the stars glowing through the 'bullet hole' iof the trunk.
