I think I have found my calling in imaging! Emission nebulae. Image them with a narrowband H-a filter and all the moonlight and local light pollution have no effect. It is as if my VLM 3.0 site were on the Carnary Islands or somewhere equally dark.
I hope there will be some bright comets to image during the spring months when there are no emission nebulae to image. Comets are my other favorite, but there aren’t any bright ones at present and the ones I can image are tail-less, which I find sort of un-comet like.
Please visit my site and provide feed back so I can improve it.
Clear skies,
