In the first days of September, I got to the village of Supsekh for shooting the night sky. The sky was clear, but even near the city there was a huge dome of illumination. I already forgot what a really dark sky is – a constantly light background. Filters do not even help against flare. And every year will be worse and worse. Despite this, the captured material turned out to be promising – it will still be necessary to return to processing.
