Taken in Sandwich, NH. There's a small amount of light pollution visible but overall I'm fairly happy with this. I have a lot to learn with astrophotography but it was an amazing experience to be out there under the stars

Here's my 2nd attempt, I'm much happier with this one. Did some light painting in the foreground with a lantern we brought out
