Mid-Atlantic Star Party 2000

The Mid-Atlantic Star Party has become one of my favorite astronomical events.
You can learn more by going to the official MASP website.

  I set the camera up in a way to catch the sky rotation around Polaris as well as the great deep sky observing taking place at Dave Barrett's (from Pocono Mountain Optics) 24" Tectron scope. 
Dave's scope and an unidentified observer are located in the front left of the frame.
