Well as I'm posting this from Minnesota, it's snowing, 32 deg with a windchill around 10 deg. The yard is still snow covered. There is no hope of spring anytime soon here. So I thought I would post a pic. I have been trying to get a somewhat decent pic of this group back to the film days. As everyone knows, it's small and faint. And the weather here in the fall can be quite finicky. OK, I'm done complaining. NGC 7320 taken with a C11 (factory CF tube) at f/11.5 (3220mm), ST-8XME, AO-8, Astrodon color filters, MI-250. Lum 10 x 15min, RGB 5 x 15min.

I'm sitting just south of the equator in Africa and I can just barely imagine MN right now. Anyway, I wanted to say I like your image.

Clears,
Joe

Hi Chris,
Nice work on a tough object. The weather is a bit better here as well and I share your excitement for those summer skies...
