Unbelievable!
I have not had my telescope out recently, but seeing your work has inspired me! As soon as the temps get back up into the 20's, I will be out there. I only have a small reflector now, but will be looking at an 8" Celestron soon. Your set up looks fantastic, and is giving me ideas for what I will do this spring.
