Went to a better dark spot this evening and grabbed new images of Comet Lemmon and Comet Swan. Then using a different technique and the wide angle lens, got a broader shot of the Milky Way in Cygnus.

Did some astrophotography with my DWARF 3 smart telescope last night.

Caught site of Comet Lemmon and Comet Swan.

In addition, I targeted Gamma Cygni in the Cygnus constellation and just captured a three degree patch of sky to show the density of the stars and nebulae in the Milky Way.
