Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC)

Click image above to view full size
A single exposure slide film shot of the Large Magellanic Cloud. The image has some trailing but when processed turns out OK. It was the first trip out to dark skies with my Losmandy GM8. I was guiding manually through my Megrez 80 with the illuminated eyepiece. Average polar alignment and no PE, so hence the trailing.
Camera:Pentax SP1000
