~10 hours of 2 min exposures with a Canon t5i and Rokinon 135 lens on Skyguider Pro.

It took a bit of work to work the walking noise out, but pretty happy with it.

Once again you've pushed the boundaries with only a DSLR and lens.

WOW!
Proving again that great things can come from staple basics.
Really well done, Brian!
Outstanding!

Me thinks the Desert air is doing you well.

Hey Sonny, how’s things going with you? Loving your new mount?

I just got a new puppy…problem is, this 2lb dog really gets the attention of the hawks living in the tree behind me.

Poor baby.
Just make sure you go out with her.
We almost lost a little Cockapoo to a big Redtailed Hawk.
When i came home from work she had to take me out and show me. I finally found it in some tall plants.
When it tried to swoop down from the power pole, it's wing's made it from line to line. Bang!
High voltage doesn't mess around.
Puppys and small dogs are prime prey for those birds.

We use to watch the Great Horned Owls bringing in cats to feed their fledglings in the twilight.
They had nests in the tall palm trees.
And a seemingly endless supply of "cat food" to help themselves to.

Enjoy your new dog, she looks darling!
Everytime I run across the Iris Nebula it brings you to mind.
😉

Otherwise, yes, loving life!
I got new cameras, and discovered NINA.
Now I'm nearly fully automatic. I love that.
My never in focus is a thing of the past.

Great shot. You can easily make out the Globluar clusters M4 and NGC 6144.

Jared and Ballard, thanks so much.

I’ve always liked my images on the dark side and have been trying to push myself to lighten them up a bit….so…

Awesome Brian, that's full of star stuff. Impressive processing, how many layers does that image have ?
