Yeah, but the DSOs don't exactly change much, whereas Juipter, Saturn, the Sun and Mars are all pretty dynamic, so you get something new each time.
It's a bit like golf, I don't understand why people keep chipping away at it, but I keep dragging my sorry arse out to try and get a better planetary shot than last time.
But DAMN Asimov, how do you get such images, I was so happy with my Saturn image, especially since it was very cloudy, but then I saw yours....
I'll be out again tonight.

To me it seems like fishing, you keep throwing the line out hoping for that elusive perfect fish night after night, same species of fish every time but you keep throwing the line back, in hope for a better one Not sure I could do it 
The beauty of our diverse pastime I guess I know I enjoy the odd look and make involuntary rude proclamations (privately) at the big fish when you guys do catch'em though
