Hi everyone

Followed this from astro dark up to the meridian before switching to m3. Managed 29 non clouded frames -corresponding to the dry westerlies- on the galaxy before airflow changed and the easterlies brought haze, damp and finally, cloud.

m3? Nada. Can't win 'em all. 

Thanks for looking and do please post your dslr 101s.

Oh, and a call-out for Siril, which reached the milestone of version 1.0.0 recently. Calibration and stacking which just works. Nice job.

Nice image. One of my favourite targets.

I'm just jealous of how many clear nights you get!😁

A weekend around new moon perhaps? Not sure where you are, but air travel is affordable ATM. Dublin and Amsterdam come to mind ~€100 i/v including checked in telescope.

Not sure my 'accountant' would approve🙁

Ah, OK. I think you may have misunderstood. You bring them along with you. 

I've never yet met an accountant who would say no to a weekend away, Especially on the promise of sun, sea and sangría;)

You haven't met my accountant. 🤣

Maybe I'll try the sangria first....
