Details:
During the flight I made it happen to capture both detail and wide-angle data to make a composite of the solar corona beyond its naked-eye visibility. Since longer exposures allow me to capture even bright stars, seems the whole Scorpius constellation appeared just in the lunar shadow as well as planets Mercury and Mars. This is the highest altitude I ever captured stars, around 41 000 feet. What a feeling! Canon 6D, Samyang 24mm, f2.0, ISO 400, vary exposures; Canon Ra, Tamron 70-200mm@200mm, f2.8, ISO 800, vary exposures.
