I also like the spiral top right of the bright blue star.

Nice work

Mike
no, there is not enough time to get the all, but it was exciting to get a bit of data on this one. This needs a bigger scale than my 0.91 arcsec, so would be nice to see what your system could do.

thanks Andy. yep the central region is about 1.5 arcmin in diameter, so it really needs better seeing and a bit more scale than my system has.
