Description

M92 taken with the full moon up from Bortle 7ish skies.

Last night was globular cluster night -- an hour on this target, and an hour on M13 (still processing that data).

It's galaxy season, but I didn't think I would have much luck with so much light pollution last night, so I turned on easy mode instead.  I'm still figuring stuff out, and honestly I can't decide if the focus is just bad, the seeing bad, or I have pixel scale issues.  I'm looking forward to getting the EAF later this month (hopefully!) which should help with my inconsistent focus.  (Also looking forward to getting an OAG at the same time, which should help my guiding.)
