  1. You're inspiring me as always. I like the open clusters - often under-rated but great to look at (especially with a frac)!
  2. I look forward to the planetary report.
  3. I've just reported you to the security services as I think that's a surface to air missile in disguise....
  4. Magnificent as always - an interesting change in topic and a true astronomer's log showing the patience to observe a single target over hours.
  5. Sad I know - but I was thinking about this post on the way to work this morning and I must say I really like your 'take' on the two sets of doubles and the beauty of the Struves over the Epsilon partners. Sometimes it's nice to forget the 'challenge' presented by splitting a double (double) and just admire the view!
  6. Nice one - as always a great write up. Beware - doubles can get addictive!
  7. The first time I looked at the sketches I was thinking that the filter made the nebula worse - then I adjusted the viewing angle of my screen and suddenly I could see what you meant. Interesting observation and the issue with the screen has made me think (somewhat laterally) about when I view through a scope: to stop being so impatient and to try the usual observing tricks, adjust my view etc. As always - a gratefully received blog entry - I tend to look at planets and doubles but (if the clouds ever clear [blah blah]) then it looks like I may go DSO hunting for a change. BTW: when's the book coming out?
