It was a horrible night for imaging. Smoke from multiple burn offs in the district obscured the stars. I could barely see Vega, it was that bad.

Top effort Jeanette, colours seen pretty well spot on as well, it is amazing what the scope can do through conditions as you described, well done.

Yes great work, such a dense cluster yet not overexposed in the core. Well done.

cheers everyone , thanks for looking.
Thought I'd get lucky tonight.....clear all day. But 2 new fires have been started. Again, I'm not going to be able to nab the comet. Hate this time of year.

Ha ha. It was an early shot. Spend quite a while processing the image though. Jen, if I'm in bed before 1am, you know I'm feeling poorly. LOL

Nice round stars.
Sometime smoke in the air steadies the seeing. The best shot I got of the M16 pillar area was from my backyard with a 2x barlow. My guiding wasn't up to it but in a few of the subs it showed incredible details. It was one evening when they did backburning.
