Hi Conn, I'm glad you asked, i was thinking that M42 has alot of hidden detail in there, I think M82 could do with a bit higher S/N ratio, thats accomplished by a longer exposure, I ran them through some very simple and quick (60 seconds) processing in photoshop. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2053/...

Well, It was an interesting observing session, as soon as we go to the hill the clouds came in :x , we did have some gaps so we got a look at the moon and of the now very faded comet Holmes, now a shadow of its former self. It now looks like a faint arc of light near Mirfak in Perseus. Short of anot...

Sorry for the zero amount of notice on this. Some have expressed a wish to go up to the hill tonight so I sent out the text alert, we all want to see the comet again before it gets too faint. If you see this late, we'll still be up there if you wish to come along, just give me a ring on my phone at ...
