About this image

Difficult haze causing uneven illumination on the image. And the usual LED light pollution from along the lane.

This image just about captures the dust lanes and some finer detail

I used some light clipping on the image to try and soften out the satellite trails - otherwise it looked like a photo of a galaxy in a cage!
