I mistook a streetlamp for the Orion nebula and wasted three nights of exposure
Thought I finally nailed a shot of the Milky Way and spent hours tweaking focus, only to realize the glowing blob was just a half‑off neon sign from the corner shop. Turns out I set the camera on a tripod that had a loose leg, so the whole frame shifted and the 'star trail' was actually my own shaky hand. Anyone else accidentally capture the urban junkyard when trying to impress ancestors with cosmic pictures? Got any tips so I don't waste another night chasing fake nebulae, or am I doomed to fill my family album with street‑lights?
