Extremely deep for 9 hours, suggesting dark skies and excellent processing.

Thanks Mike (or is it Trish?...I'm guessing Mike
...) Yes, I really liked the out come, a lovely field, was well worth the two work nights I went out to my observatory and the barely 4 hrs sleep each night before going to work....
