Default ASTRO: Crawling out of winter

Thanks for all the kind comments. It was the only clear night I have been
able to image with out a moon. Its been a real tease. Maybe tonight later
on it will clear out.

Hi, This is my first deep-sky astro image since last November. We have
gotten over 105" of snow this season and its not even April. Rick I don't
even want to hear about it because we get everything you get...just a bit
warmer. I live in west MI and the weather flows through your area first
then on to us:-) I was a little rusty remembering how everything worked
but I did manage to get this test shot of the Leo Trio. As you can see

the
frame was not centered very well. 4 x 3min @ 800asa with 4" TAK with f/6
reducer. Canon XTi modded shot in JPEG mode.

Thanks for lookin'

Joe
