I mentioned that I let the M51 galaxy shot let run unattended last night
and then I got up at 3am to image a summer nebula. Well that was M16 and
I did get 2 hours of Halpha

here's that image.

Shot with the Stinger 18" classical cass with the FLI Dream Machine
camera and a Custom Scientific 4.5nm Halpha filter

No fair, it can't be the end of galaxy season already. I've hardly had a
chance to image any of the several score on my list!


well I did have to get up at 3am to have it high enough to image....

In another month I guess that means 1 am and a month after perhaps 11pm?

I think you have at least another good 6 to 8 weeks left of the later
galaxies..
