hey here is a challenge for Mr Sidonio

I just browsed around on APOD and saw this - remembering how many sidonio's of this mr sidonio did do i was thinking that when he gets resettled and in pristine dark skies he might have another hack at it with that photon catcher of his

Ha ha Very Funny Houghy....

Actuuuually, I did have a shot at emulating that Blanco 4m telescope version with my deep data set and as you can see I did indeed manage to reveal those shells - see bottom left image HERE

But you are correct and we are looking at dark sites (to live) around Canberra this coming weekend even
