Antares, M4 and the rho Ophiuchi cloud complex
True-colour image taken with a camera tracker, unmodified mirrorless camera with a standard 200mm f2.8 camera lens. The image is from just 35 one-minute exposures taken over two nights!  A few 30s and 10s exposures were used with HDR to control star saturation.
