This week's StellarShot of M8/M20 was submitted to us by Ed Lubat. To "Own the Night" Ed used his SVX80T-3SV with our .74 reducer. We are very proud to share this with the Stellarvue family, and hope you appreciate the image as much as we do. Ed also said this: “I don't really consider myself an expert, but as far as I can tell, the stars are truly round from corner to corner, and the images look great, so I love it for photography.”
