Erwin - Hot shot :-))) pretty darn similiar to our pencil drawing of starfield and comet in ep we made
- except ours doesnt go down to the 17th -18th+ mag stars you have LOL and our rendition was from an hour before yours - although 15th mag stars were easily visible in the ep for us in 8"dob. But we certainly didnt see that faint galaxy nearby!!! But thanks that is now in my obs log/memento folder
Michael Mattiazzo of SA got a couple of beauties too :-)
