Hi all,
yes, congrats to Peter for number 50, we have all been trying hard in spite of the poorish weather in both NZ and SE Qld lately, to find number 50.
I missed out on the discovery action when Peter found this one, as I had left my telephone in the house while I was fiddling with the polar alignment, so I didn't hear him ring me several times during the initial flurry of action and call to arms for assistance...doh!!

Anyway, 24 hours later, and here's another finder chart made from 12 x 30 second images last night under poor seeing, and in between clouds rolling through, mixed with a bit of bushfire smoke! Magnitude is about 14.6R, and brightning.

It's a bit of a visual challenge, but I'm sure looking forward to any colour pics that anyone can capture!

Clear skies, looking forward to number 100 for BOSS!
