Greetings, all…
While we were waiting for darkness at our Hensley Lake observing site last night we were treated to a very nice sunset. Here is one of my best shots. Olympus E-1 + 50-200 mm @ 130 mm, ISO 400, 1/1000 s, and f/8.
By about 7:00 p.m., the breeze and clouds were gone and the skies were steady and clear. The evening started at about 65°F and dropped only to about 55°F by 11:00 pm, when I left. I saw the Rosette for the first time with my Celestron CPC-800. I had tried before, but this time I remembered the OIII filter.
