        I think there is a tiny part above the left tree, but maybe not?🤔
        45 miles not NOT enough away from the Twin Cities! Next time North Shore!! The research for last night had the galactic core at 6° above the horizon, that not much 😒.

        The “shooting stars” are a nice touch, 😉.

          I think it’s a really good first attempt, but you’re right about the galactic core not being high enough if that’s what you are aiming for. There’s probably a couple of apps that can tell you where it is and a better time to shoot but this does not suck at all so I wouldn’t be unhappy with this. I think you’re probably far enough outside of the light pollution that that shouldn’t matter too much. Keep going with this mate. I think I see some very promising photos in your future if you nail this.

            I’d be really pleased with this Daniel, the shooting stars are a great bonus.
