dear Atalas,

I have updated the image link in the top thread.

It is quite possible to do visual observation in HK when the sky is clear, and when dust/haze pollution is not serious.

However, I mainly view through my CZ 12.5 F5 mirror dob which unfortunately is located in my home where seeing and light pollution are serious. So only good for the planets but not DSOs.

I do astro imaging with TEC140 F7 which is located in a darker sub-urban area. Since TEC F7 is an oil-based triplet APO, views through it should be splendid as well. Just no time to view through it when I am busy with imaging. Usually I try to image several DSOs a night. You know, too many worthy objects for imaging when the sky is clear and transparent.

Raymond.
