Re: 12-12-2019 TSS Astrophotography Photo of the Day.
Indeed a wonderful image!
If I had attempted this I would groan and throw it away as a shot with dust bunnies that the flats had not taken care of!
Well the dust bunnies are really there and probably hundreds of light years across. These bunnies are desirable....
Thank you Dan.
