I finally tried to photograph the Orion Nebula with my old camera lens
I attached my old 50mm lens to my DSLR, thinking I could get a wide-field shot from my backyard in Phoenix. After a two-hour exposure, I ended up with a blurry, orange smudge because I forgot to turn off the backyard security light. The whole stack of images was just washed out. Has anyone else had a simple mistake ruin a whole night of imaging?

Ugh, that's the worst kind of mistake. Did you at least notice the light was on while you were shooting, or was it a nasty surprise when you checked the files?

The worst kind of mistake" seems a bit much. It's just a light in a photo, not a ruined roll of film or something. Can't you just fix it in editing?
