Hi everyone,
I was going through my Messier astrophotography photos today, when I made an interesting discovery. Today, I realized I have photographed 60 Messier objects! I am more than halfway done with the Messier list, and I didn't even realize it!
As a result, I decided to build on my previous 40 photo Messier AP challenge success, and attempt the 80 photo Messier AP challenge. I have 20 more to go already!
I'll let you all know how it goes, and I will post pictures when the challenge is completed.
20 more to go!
Jared

How did you get on Jared?
Inspired by
@Mike Q's enthusiasm I might have a go at the next 40 targets!

That's excellent Mike!
Could you put a list together and post it in the
Messier Visual Reports Section please.
I see Profile bling heading your way!

Wow, I forgot I was doing this challenge. I actually had a computer glitch accident, and I lost a majority of my astrophotography photos. I need to start over.
It’s OK, though. I got a new telescope last Christmas, and I wanted to start over anyway so I can update all my photos.
I have the following:
M1-2, M13, M27, M29-30, M34-40, M42-43, M45, M57, M71-72, and M82.
20 total. 60 more to go.
