After surviving the worst storm of my life, I had a chance to image during a power outage that covered many miles. It's been 5 days with no power. Although the skies were dark, I think I'll take the electricity.
My little observatory withstood the 95 m.p.h wind gusts so I fired up the genarator and took a shot at a small piece of the Network Nebula.

Very cool shot Brian! 8)
Sorry to hear about your power outage... I feel you pain, as we were 14 days without power after Wilma... sad
The ONLY good thing is that I was able to see the Milky Way from home, for about a week... wink
