Statue Of Liberty NGC3576

Statue Of Liberty NGC3576
I was after this with the closer view than my first so the nebula can be seen better. I was after three night but had to bring my gear in after only one we where to be clouded and storms.

when I was disconnecting a small piece of the USB3 broke and fell on to the ground at my feet. you can see the very small part on top of the camera. As the camera is under warranty (sep 2021) I wrote to the shop I purchased the camera from and am waiting for there instructions.

So it is only going to be just the one night of 52 photos till next year. I have included a starless version so you can better see the statue of Liberty clearly with out the stars.

You really cant miss the Statue of Liberty so I have put a box around it so you just cant unsee it any more.
