Description
Ladies, and gentlemen, this is Uranus, planet number 8 from the sun. I know, it looks like a star, the way it's refracting, but it's Uranus. Truth be told, the exposure is far too long; yes, I'm still learning, and yes, perhaps it's a bit sloppy, and yes, I need to fine tune it. However, this photo is just... a rough one. Intended to be a clear shot (though all in grey-scale), and take many short ones, but hey, why not? Anyhow, what I like about it, is that it's in our own backyard, and the photo gives it an artistic look (I find), and the twinkle... well, that's cool to me. Took it with the Abbey Ridge Observatory (thank you to the individual who's allowing me to schedule photographs). On that note, have fun!
