Gwaihir - Storm Wind (M16)

Hi All,

Here is an image I have been working on for a bit to keep me busy until the new camera arrives over the coming weeks.

Some pretty good seeing conditions were present over the last few days between bursts of fog and high cloud. Apart from that, fairly stable until the current weather front started to move through late last night.
