Hi Supernova1965

DSO is indeed Deep Sky Object. I'd say you captured a CSO? (lose shot object?). Looks like a shot thru a window at something very close to the scope. Would love to have got some shots re a Gullah nest not more than 20M from my back door. Sadly the chicks have already flown the coupe so to speak so I won't be able to shoot anything re that. Anyways I like the shot of yours

James

Thanks for your comments. I was sitting at my computer and had the camera to hand and saw them through the window picked up the camera and snapped the shot no scope used.
