Scutum star clouds

Wide field image of the Scutum area taken with my Rokinon 135mm prime lens at f/2.8 on my 1300D DSLR Canon camera and mounted on my StarAdventure 2i pro tracking mount. I used an intervalometer to control the camera and a Bahtinov mask to focus on a bright star.Settings were 45s and 800ISO. 70 images were captured with 50 flat frames and 25 dark frames all stacked in DSS' edited in Siril and Gimp 2.10. The image was taken under Bortle 3 skies at Falls Bay Gower.
