Thanks. Putting the folding hood on your Pentax 6x7 in lieu of the prism will help reduce the weight some.
I was going to try my barn door tracker out on the Alvord Desert but somehow it was left behind. So I just did a 500-Rule shot. The tent light was on only for a fraction of the total exposure.

I like it too, austin.
On my last trip to the Alvord, a thunder storm was rolling by off in the distance. As it came closer, I started getting a little nervous out in the open where you might be the path of least resistance. I did have car for some protection but fortunately it never came too close.

Thanks. We had one wind storm that destroyed our shade structure, but other than that, it was very mild. The wildfire smoke did make for some surreal light though. We drove to the top of Steens Mountain but the view was completely obscured.
