TheSkySearchers

Well the full Moon bleached everything out as you would expect, (and any chance of recent CME SE England aurora too!) But when the night sky is clear you got to do what you got to do! I was tricked by the low humidity and forgot to turn up the percent aggression on the dew controllers for a close to zenith target so copped some condensation. But I didn't want to over process it and loose the detail of the glob. So here's a suboptimal Caldwell 25, the Intergalactic Wanderer. I was going to rotate the camera to get a nice horizontal conga line but I had already calibrated the guiding and didn't want to move it!




At least I got some practice in, we've got rain for a month now!

Nicely done Graeme. Your image looks similar to what I often see visually. The little faint diffuse ball of light in line with the two field stars. They make a fine combination in my book. I am ready to publish the April edition and hope you (and others hopefully) enjoy it!
