Hi All,
I finally got a chance to head out to really dark skies this past weekend..unfortunatly, the weather did not cooperate...High winds and poor seeing were the theme for the weekend, although the last night was, for the most part, just bad seeing. And, just my luck, my scope died right after completing the subs for this image...oh well, atleast I got one..not quite as good as I hoped it would be, but okay..

Nice image Don! If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have guessed you were having any trouble at all. Hang in there!!
