Re: [APML] 17 Exposure Stack of the Bubble

OK, you're crazy <g>.

Actually, Frank, I think that's a beauty of an image. Just gorgeous. You are
an inspiration. If you can do that from your mag 4.2 backyard, I should be
able to also get results from my mag 4.5 backyard. Generally I don't do much
imaging from my backyard, preferring to travel to darker spots instead. But
those opportunities are few and far between due to lack of time.

So, you spent four nights getting those images?
