Description

I re-shot the Headphone this month, adding about 10+ hours of L-Extreme-filtered shots to last year's data.  My 8" scope just doesn't quite capture the glittering distant galaxies littering the area that are visible in bigger and better scopes, but I think this one's better than last year's.  Incremental progress, attributed to more data and another year's-worth of experience...

It's still a joy to shoot something 1600 light-years away, from my own yard with my own humble equipment.
