Its summer time!!! NOT! We just got 4" + of wet snow yesterday. This is
from last summer. 14" SCT with a ST9XE. (3x5min Lum, 3,3,3) Its pretty
rough but at least its something.

That one was on my list for last summer. Night I tried it seeing was
too bad. Stars were so blobby I quit after three frames. I'll try
again in a few months.

Yours came out nice.

Snow went south of us. We still have several inches on the ground from
the April 1 storm however. Only got a dusting from the guy that hit you
and points east -- like George N. We needed the moisture so just
getting clouds was a bummer. Trying to clear tonight. I may get
somethine or it may cloud over as the temperature drops. Have my
fingers crossed.

Joe,

It was nice and warm when I was in Orlando a few weeks ago........

Neat image! Glad to see it in color. I do have an old b&w image taken with
the ST-6 back in 2001. I'll have to try it in color next summer.

Very nice picture. The stars look a bit too colourful to me but the nebula
looks great.
