Hi Mike
yes, I guess you are right.
Greg - yes, it is great. I am very excited about the imaging opportunities, albeit limited. If my remote opportunity ever does materialise, it will be superb. My arc of sky here is very small, light polluted and I cannot see anything of the summer Milky Way. The other aspect of course is that I am limited to imaging large nebulous areas and the likes. Galaxies (with the exception of M31 of course) are typically just not worth shooting at this focal length.
To overcome the light pollution issue, I might just stick to narrowband imaging. It is just so much fun, and doable regardless of what the light pollution might be doing or the moon for that matter.
thanks for commenting.
