          Description

          The Helping Hand is a very faint dark and reflection nebula region in Cassiopeia and definitely a challenge. I ran it on my new dark site for 3 nights. These many clear, moonless nights are almost miraculous. There was a small drawback, the humidity was sometimes at 98%. Even the stars got wet, so the bigger ones are a bit ugly, but I don't care, the nebulae turned out very nice.
          It's so cool when you can just leave the scope and continue on the next night.😀
