Description

I didn't expect to be able to photograph this when it rises in the east due to 
ground fog that moves in most every morning.  I was able to get 32 frames at 12 degrees above the horizon before
the fog became too thick. Even with that the PHD2 guiding graph looked like a Jackson Pollock painting, I was concerned my
mount was going to start vibrating trying to stay on target.... ;)
