You are having some better skies than me of late. That low is really
washed out in gunk for me. I wanted to get some color on it and M8 this
year but weather never allowed it. Nothing but clouds and sucker holes
for me this new moon period, last was no better. I got one frame in
last night. Clear sky clock said it wouldn't cloud up until midnight.
It lied.

In any case your shot came out well.
