I got a chance to get out and shoot the other day. It has been so long I think I forgot how.

Canon MKII, 300mm f/2.8 and 2X extender.

I don't think you forgot anything, Cal--sweet shot!

Flycatcher?

Posted By Jeff Hapeman
Well, Robert, flycatchers are notoriously difficult to identify...generally you have to hear a call to be positive about the identification. That said, this is most likely an Eastern Wood Pewee.

Pretty cool, Ken. I searched for those guys down in that area about 13 years ago, and came up dry. They are not common anywhere, least of all there.

Very common in central Texas, but this is the largest one I have ever seen. He was busy trying to get under the door of this restroom. Quite a surprise for someone if he had succeeded. -Kurt Horsley

He's a beauty, too. Looks like it recently shed its skin.

Great stuff, Ty. That galaxy shows some beautiful detail in color. I used to have a CN-212; it's a very nifty and versatile scope.

My first M31 of the year

Wonderful work!

What were the lengths of the sub-exposures? I am wondering because in my experience, if they are too short, you can get the central dust, but struggle to get the outer arms--and vice-versa.
