The seeing was really poor last night with a high dew point and later clouds blanked out the sky... But I've been dying to get some sort of imaging in during the summer. I hadn't ever had a chance to try Andromeda and I noticed it was now in a good position for my yard. I was able to make a faint impression over about half an hour.
