Horsehead and Flame 11 November 2012

Yet another clear night - whatever next?! :)

 

I did another 4 hours on M33 last night, only to discover at the end that the dew band wasn't working - 4 hours wasted, more or less. Not to be deterred, and with Orion waving at me invitingly, I had a go at good ol' long face. The ED80 works miracles on this, compared to the 200p :)
