Description

Captured in 2 sessions, total integration time of 6.5~ hours.

I managed to capture this from my city apartment balcony.

I have very limited view, a huge tree covering almost a third of my west pointing sky, heavy city light pollution and can point my telescope from my balcony mostly north-west.

but with in my limited conditions I am kind of happy with my result of The Hidden Galaxy.

I used the L-Pro 2” filter in both sessions, and my Nikon D5300 DSLR camera.

I hope to gradually get better results within more time, I started doing Astrophotography only couple of months ago, and hope that this example can help and be a good refrence to anyone who wants to start getting into it as well.
