... mind you it was with a 1.25m (48") aperture Dobson mounted Newtonian. This 'scope is apparently the largest amateur 'scope in the world and perhaps somewhat predictably situated in Texas, U.S.A.
If the sky co-operates, I'll take a peek tomorrow night out at my Southern Highlands "nearly dark" spot with my tiny 0.46m ...
Best,
