Description

My first successful attempt at Rho Ophiuchi. I've tried several times and have either been foiled by clouds or equipment issues. I took 52 subs but had to reject 19 because of clouds. Hopefully I can add a few more hours integration. Rho Oph is tied with the Witchhead for my favorite reflection nebula.
