Wow! Photo of the day? Heck, that was just with a Pixel 4 phone. Pretty soon I'll be putting up photos shot with my Canon equipment and EQ Mount. I can't wait until late spring/early summer when the core of the Milky Way will be visible. I'm lucky enough to be in an area of Virginia where there are some great shots with little light pollution. I'm just 30 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway. And where I live in Fluvanna County is fairly dark considering I'm on the East Coast.
Cheers!
