Default ASTRO: M42 - Oct2010 (Location.. Location.. Location) - 2 attachments

....Conditions were almost perfect, decided to make the trip out to
Possum Kingdom State Park, Very Dark Site.. 2.5hr drive, 2hr SetUp,
and almost everything that could go wrong did.. by almost midnight
was able to finally start imaging.. so total subs are lacking but
the site quality compensated somewhat.., on the drive home at 70mph
almost hit a 8 point buck jumping across the road, then while sitting
at a stop light i found out i had a spider in my shirt.. he bit the
nearest or Biggest thing he could find.. my belly!, felt like i had
been 2Pac'd (shot thru the door).. anyhow hope you like the images...

Well, maybe you should move to 18 minutes south of Dallas ;-)
Usual SQM-L value in a moonless clear night around here is 18.7.
I guess that most large cities in the US are brighter than Berlin.
