Hi everyone

With the moon out of the way we were able try fainter fuzzy stuff. It looks as if there is some blue about to emerge. Surprised to see so often frames were being downloaded, we only noticed we'd set 3m instead of the intended 6m. Maybe that would help with the colour. Unfortunately and once again, although the sky looked amazing, the stars were bouncing around hellishly, offset in EKOS as best we could using 3s guide frames with a min-error 0.60".

Thanks for looking and any dslr shots of the same, do post your experience.

Beautiful shot. Glad somewhere in the world there are less clouds at night

In Spain, new telescope sales are the lowest in the world, hence far more clear nights.
