Solo Camping in The Last Chance Desert, Utah...during the new moon phase of June. First ever successful session at Astrophotography. All previous efforts were dismal and dark. No fancy equipment. Used Canon, used Rokinon 14mm, used tripod. $300 investment. Success factor = priceless! I was dancing and yodelling with the coyotes! YeeHaaaa!

Canon DSLR, 14mm Rokinon lens, tripod, 20 seconds, foreground lighting via cell phone screen.

Contrast/color enhanced on Surface pro tablet. No stacking or anything fancy.
