This was a target of opportunity the other night while waiting for other things to get up. I Iooked at what had been done at FLC, and there was not any recent images. This is a set of 20x15s L, and 9x30s each of RGB. If another night comes up I might be able to get some SII and OIII to go with some Ha from last year.
