well done nytecam - you must have some very dark skies where you live ...in London. OD

Hardly OD - my skies are aweful but last night was better than usual eg mag 4 stars just visible to the eye at fair altitude and I could make out the outline of Leo for example. However this proves the common misnomer where the brain is overruled by the eye in selecting good skies whilst the cam, without prejudice, can see much deeper under almost any conditions. So it's keep eating the carrots or get out the cam
