Hi guys, I`m on vacation in Greece at the moment and I just wanted to share my happiness with the awesome skies here...
These aren`t mag 6+ skies,they look more like mag 7+ skies to me,unbelievable...M 31 as well as the double cluster,M13,and the Scutum and Saggitarius milky-way vistas look truly bright here!!!I look at the Pleiades and count more than 11 stars with the naked eye!!!When I get back home I`m defenitely moving to a dark-sky site!I live in a small town right now and I`m absolutely amazed!!
