My first astro picture can be seen above, taken in July of 2017 at some lake in the Adirondacks. I was using a Rebel T6i with an 18-55 kit lens at the time.
These two were taken in New Hampshire in February of 2023, with an ambient temperature of -6 F. The woods was dead silent, only the creaking and crackling of the trees could be heard from hundreds of feet away.
