Description

My sky was clear and relatively transparent. However it could not be considered dark because

of a 3/4 Moon . Imaging to the South and Southeast was not possible because of the Moon. I

couldn't even see the brightest constellations in that direction. However I didn't want to waste

a clear night so I chose to image M57 the Ring Nebula because it is bright although small but

I could see the ring shape easily in my 8 Inch Newt and it was located away from the Moon. With

all of that said please enjoy my most recent image of M57 the Ring Nebula.
