You captured a lot of detail on this little guy, looks very good. A bit more time and the spiral would really start to pop.

Yea, I've spent the last few nights venturing into uncharted territory, so much cool stuff out there an so little time to shoot it.

Now back to school for a few months. Get to stare at my telescope sitting unused and abused in my appt until I can get back out of the city again. Was a good run.

Cheers
