Auriga

The above image was taken whilst on holiday in Tenerife on 21st January 1993 using the camera platform. .
The location was about 4000ft on Mount Teide, at the side of the road before driving up into the caldera, The exposure was only 90 seconds. 50mm standard lens onto Fugichrome 400 pro.
The sky was amazing. Truly awesome. It took a little while to find polaris amongst the myriad of stars before I could set up the tracker.



An enlarged area showing the open clusters in Auriga. Even the cross shaped M38 is easily captured with a 50mm lens !
