Dave,
Excellent result from just above the horizon
That big scope is capable of anything by the look of it
Well done !!
Clear tomorrow night in Sydney but the moons up just after midnight.Not to many Nebula around , there all descending in the west , unless you wait until the wee hours and catch the other end of the Milky Way with Orion rising ( Helix is still around though, all night ) Plenty of galaxies around but the Dark is at least 4 or 5 days away. I might give NGC 1365 a go tomorrow night with my little 6” ( 60 sec subs ) as it’s well placed at 10pm and doesn’t pass the meridian until 3am
That on line Light Pollution map (dated 2015) that most folk use as a reference has Padstow at Bortle 6/7 , I reckon it’s Bortle 7/8 now without a doubt. The Skyglow is Sydney is getting worse each year. Which makes your M33 image so much better IMO
Cheers
Martin
