My first starfield photo! Taken with a handheld camera!

            My first starfield picture!  With a planet, Jupiter! Which is crap by the high standards of Flickr or the other nerds on the tour with their tripods and trackers, but the stargazing outside San Pedro de Atacama was amazing. If I looked up with my birding binoculars I could see star clusters and nebulae all over the sky, and the stars were SO bright that a decent Nikon could capture a starfield when held in a person's hands. Dayam.
