The Dark Shark Nebula - LDN 1235 Shot over three nights during the annual astromania camp, at a bortle 3 location somewhere in the mountains of Romania, at around 1300m altitude. I only managed to keep 14h of exposure, due to bad stars. One of my tripod legs got loose during the night and I had to scrap a few good hours of exposure. In the end, I was left with exactly 14h of fairly good exposure.
