Description

I'm jokingly calling this my waterfowl image, because this is the Seagull Nebula (huge, upper left) and the Duck Nebula--also known as Thor's Helmet (tiny, lower right). Only about 3 1/2 hours, but I don't get this target for long. It quickly goes behind a tree. Also I have last night, tonight, and *maybe* tomorrow night. Then more clouds, more rain, followed by more moon. I'm trying to get a lot done in a short period of time.
