The western bow is always a better looking bow than the eastern Bow I did enjoy the night. HFF to you.

great Steve. we only get the 2/3 part on the right with the Sag area near the horizon. We never get the LMC and SMC which are so nice in your picture. Did you ever try some detailed work on the SMC and LMC?

As I dont have an equatorial mount I have never tried but as its fine this weekend I will try with my 50mm and 105mm and see what I get.the biggest killer is time with longer lens. Its certainly worth a try. Many thanks .

HFF Steve - milky way could appear as a fence in your capture, as well.
