Calstar 2009 by Carl Larson

Olympus E-620

The telescope field at Calstar 2009, a star party held each year at Lake San Antonio in the central coast range of California. Three nights of dark sky observing on Sept 17,18,19. Dozens of scopes and imaging gear - from binoculars to monster dobsonians. This pano was taken in fading light as people began to move onto the field to ready their gear for the nights observing.
