Shot with friends. We were lucky to go to a spot dark enough to get this picture with a Single exposure (~90s) and no light filters.

That is beautiful. What telescope and camera did you use?

Thank you! Pretty amazing what light come in when you can hold the shutter open. It was a Sony a7r4 with the Sony 200-600 @600mm mounted on a sky_watcher star adventure II with a slightly modified counterweight to handle the load.
