Description

Before this goes away for the year I wanted to put a little time in on it.  

I decided to experiment and gather some O3 data with more moon out than I would usually (within the last 2 days).  Cygnus was just away from it so I decided to give it a try.  It could use more of course, but I was happy with the results.  

Here in the midwest US it's been a pretty quick transition to cooler mornings which means dew for me as always.  The dew heater bands and the heater on the camera put in work.  Also first complete image with the ZWO EAF and I can't believe I waited to long to go auto focus.
