Lovely image Peter, a difficult target I am sure and with 21 hours I guess you are getting the same sort of clear skies I have 36 on the trot now and again clear.

Super image Peter, and my favourite class of DSO, and it’s circumpolar from the UK.

Will definitely give this a go when the Obs is up and running, not sure how long it will take to amass 21 hrs though, even with the dual rig.

Another excellent image Pete, and how nice to see you look at something other than PNs 😋
