NGC 4631 - Whale & pup

[Parallax]

Last night was my longest imaging session of the year. The clouds stayed away long enough for me to get nearly all the data I set out to get. Also, the guiding was a lot better than the previous night. Plus this was the first time that I have successfully managed a meridian flip during the session.

Very nice Steve, lots of lovely data there...

Amazing what you can get when everything works as it should.

As Dave said, you've got to be happy with that?
