Stars including Pleiades (The Seven Sisters) viewed through The Stacks at Botany Bay, Broadstairs, Kent. A new moon (no moon) aided me with the stars shining well, just enough to defeat the bright lights of Thanet. No extra lighting was required, just a nice long exposure and the orange glow from Deal and Dover was accentuated just enough to give a nice warming effect.
