Hi all,
Just noticed late last night (after the fact) that my IC 410 - Tadpoles Nebula image made Astronomy Magazine Picture of the Day this past Tuesday (27 Dec 16)!

Here is a screengrab of the page:

M31 - Andromeda Galaxy

http://jeffjastro.com
Hi all :)  Here is my latest result. I imaged this on Thanksgiving eve (23 Nov 2016) here in my city. As normal, imaged this using my backyard portable setup. Hope you enjoy - I was so happy to get out again after so much time since my last imaging session. Also, this image was a test of the focus on my small Tak FS-60C telescope - it performed beyond my expectations. Love this scope.
