great idea! - I was thinking a 2006 highlights (retrospective or year in review) thread was a good idea for a while now
didnt get much action this year, mostly due to weather (got some nice visual obs of SW3, maybe viewed components on about 10 occasions thru its apparition - that was a highlight of the year for me) - but here's a couple i am happy with
ple from sept - I was happy considering bad conditions, half the shots were thru cloud
