Hello all. I recently returned from the Texas star party in far west Texas in the town of Fort Davis. The first three nights were the best and the rest of the week was bad, cloudy rainy etc. I took these on Tuesday night (most transparent of the week) and I used my Nikon D800 with the 200mm f/2.8G and 35mm F/1.4G on the AstroTrac. ISO was 400 & 1600 for 6~8 minutes. All images processed with Nikon Capture NX2. My D800 is unmodified. I had a great time and have many more photos to process. Enjoy...
