aluminizing up to 16"? Awesome! Near Nelson??

I live on the sea side of the port hils, far enough around that there are no port lights, and only one house light so the stars are great even from our deck. I saw the orion nebula (well, the hint of it) the other night. I didn't even know it was there, saw "Hmm, that looks funny and cloudy there" through binoculars, then googled and realised I had seen my first nebula.
