Superb!!! Unfortunately the skies here were wet and cloudy on the glorious 12th. Even with perfect skies my pictures turn out mucky brown due to light pollution, will have to see if I can get my Nexstar 80GT mount to polar align. Again terrific shot.

Hello Vance!
Thanks for your comment.
I used my telescope Celestron NexStar 11 GPS for tracking, I polaraligned it.
Best regards
