[AZ-Observing] Re: A very deep zodiacal band shot to ponder

Hi Chris-
An amazing shot!  Not only did you catch the zodiacal band, but there are
a multitude of other objects there you have to hunt down - M33 and Helix
among them.  And all this from a single shot?  Would it have helped to
take 2 or 3 to add together?  Great effort!
