Equipment Details:

Canon t3i camera w/ Rokinon lens 10mm @f2.8, Manfrotto tripod, intervalometer.

Post-processing Details:

Cropped the top off. Darkened the exposure since the 25 second length captured more light resembling the early dawn. This was one of the last shots of the evening/morning session from 1030 pm to 410am.

Image Details:

The waning crescent moon ( blown out due to 25 second exposure ) rising with Pleiades beside it and the neighboring galaxy, Andromeda, above near the center top of the image. Single 25 sec. exposure. 10mm lens wide open @ f2.8. Clouds were returning quickly and in abundance as the the Milky Way core was already obscured leaving the opposite end of the galactic arm or the northern sky the only targets. Plus the fact that I had been up since 550 AM the previous day.
