Thought Id have a quick imaging session before moonrise, earlier, a mate asked about this object, so on realising I could just get at it between trees as it set I went for it.

Hehehe no BBQ but the darn cat decided to curl up next to the scope so I had to be careful not to tread on him when I was setting everything up for the pic.
