Description

After spinning my wheels for 6 weeks I am still waiting for some clear moonless skies here in Ottawa. I have not been able to post a single decent image since mid-September and I'm going crazy, especially since I've had a new HEQ5 Pro mount for over a month and can't use it.

Yesterday, in desperation I dug up this old data from last year and reprocessed it just for fun. It's noisy and ugly and very wild... but that's very close to how I feel these days waiting for a clear night so it suits me well!!

Regarding this image, I don't know whether to say to you "enjoy" or "ignore!" LOL!
