ASTRO: M42

Well I'm still goofing off with the point and shoot camera on M42. Here is
a 9 minute composite taken last night with the air temps in the single
digits. Its got a bunch of dark pixels that showed up on the 5 min shot for
some reason. I think I'll stick to 4 minutes subs. It was taken with a
CP4500 and a 4" Tak with a 26mm EP.

You got part of the Running Man as well. Does appear noisier than your
previous shots. I'd go back and look but they got pushed off the server
by that idiot posting all those megabytes of copied pictures. I have
been under clouds for the last 4 days. Tonight I have high thin clouds
with a large cloud bank to the south that seems to be moving this way.
Not sure if I'll get anything or not tonight. Also it almost hit 0C
today. Warmest in nearly a month.

Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct.
Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh".

Quite remarkable result for a "normal" (not DSLR) digicam.
