Photo description / processing

I'm not ready yet to spend 5 hours on travel and setup for just an hour and a half of shooting per night, which would be needed to accumulate at least 6 hours of total exposure. So for now, this is the result from a single outing. I got somewhat lucky with the atmosphere, considering the object's maximum altitude was only 20 degrees. I used short exposures for the stars—I messed up, should have shot them in L.
