You prove that is possible to do great imaging in Ohio.
Congrats!

Mario,
Good depth and texture. I can almost feel the dust clouds. Great job.

Excellant work. Better than we can get in Columbus. I own a farm just north of McArthur and sometimes image with my TAQ 104mm on an AP 900 mount. Southern Ohio has better skies.

Mario,
This is an amazingly good image, especially because of being
captured in Ohio!
