M31

[ultramol]

Went out last night at around midnight and got the best view ever of M31 in my 15x70 bins. It must have been good seeing because I live in the north west which has the highest light pollution EVER. I also had to hand hold the bins as my tripod has given up the ghost. I am going to make a new on where I can be seated. I followed some wonderful links from here on how to do this...Geoff

It was good late on last night, it's so worth the wait to get that perfect view,

Andromeda galaxy is spectacular especially when the viewing is good, L P

is a pain sometimes but Andromeda is nicely situated at the moment, high

and away from the L P, nice to hear you are enjoying your observing.
