This photograph of the Great or Aquila Rift was taken on 2000/5/6 at Cherry Springs State Park in Potter County, Pennsylvania, using a Pentax K1000 SLR camera and Kodak 800 Gold Max film. It was a 15 minute long, piggybacked exposure. The asterism known as the Coathanger (Brocchi's Cluster; Collinder 399) can be seen to the right of the center of the picture.
