Around DeepSpace, Central Park, & Kohoutek

As of 8/17 at about 0200 (aka 2 am), I still need to (want to) do some work to the first 8 photos on this page. They were taken with a new lens (not just new to me, the lens was released in July '22) and I haven't gone in depth with making a new profile for editing photos taken with it. The last 4 were with the lens I've had since I've had my camera and I deem them to be complete. Still, enjoy.

And yes, the tiny white circle just above the horizon in these photos is the moon. Sadly I didn't get a good photo of the full moon, so none are here.

If you're wondering why the last 4 are taken so close to the ground, it's because I set my camera on the ground to take the photos for 3 reasons.

• I can't hold perfectly still for the length of time required (between a half and ten seconds). Need more light as it was much darker outside, as you can probably tell.

• I don't have a tripod (yet), and the ground works almost just as well.
