Image Details:

Someone in the last couple of weeks posted a pic of the California nebula and Pleiades at 55mm. I have been working on a pic of the California Nebula at 600mm for a good 10 days now and seem to have finally gotten a decent photo. It is always a joy for me to see what I can get with standard camera gear.

If you look at the shape of the State of California it really does look a lot like this nebula.
