Hi Greg,

Another cracker! I've just been having a look at this Wikipedia article amongst others to learn a little more about it. 8)

Very nice. I am jealous. My sky is so light polluted that I haven't even bothered taking out my scope in 2 years.

Don't give up Astroman! Move into narrowband imaging - people get superb results even from City environments. Give it a try.

Thanks, I will look into that. I was more at the observational astronomy stage, rather than astro-photography, and it gets pretty frustrating when you need to travel 30 min just to get poor skies (rather than horrible). If you've ever seen one of the "world at night" photos, it's easy to see my problem (coastal region of New England).
