I could enjoy imaging of the nebula again and add more data. Faint reflection gas got visible clearly. The area is busy with gas and dust.
I could enjoy imaging of the nebulae with a fine apochromatic telescope during residual time of comet chasing. Stars were sharper than before, though data were not enough.
Here is a frame taken with 12" Newtonian telescope one hour and a bit more integlation. The Newtonian is fast:

Located just outside the City of Piedmont in Wayne County, Missouri, Lon Sanders Canyon is a shut-in formed by McKenzie Creek as it winds its way through the rocky canyon, forming waterfalls and pools along its path. The remnants of stone stairs cut into the steep bluffs and two small rock dams are all that remain of a failed attempt by a St. Louis entrepreneur named Lon Sanders to build a private resort in the canyon.
Lon Sanders was born in Corinth, Mississippi, in 1866. In 1887 he came to St. Louis, Missouri, where he started the Sanders Engraving Company, which manufactured electrotypers and engravers. The business was a success, and soon Sanders had plants in St. Louis, Memphis and Chattanooga, Tennessee. I’ve been unable to find information to indicate when he started construction on his ill-fated resort, or why it was never completed. If anyone has additional information, please feel free to add it to the comments below.
According to local lore, the trail leading down into the canyon is allegedly haunted. People have reported hearing the voice of a woman faintly calling out from the surrounding woods: “Please! Help me.” To add to the mystery of the area, in 1973, Piedmont (pop. 1,977) gained national notoriety when hundreds of people reported UFO sighting in the area. However, in my multiple visits to Lon Sanders Canyon Conservation Area, I have yet to encounter screaming women or aliens.

Gramvousa also Grampousa refers to two small uninhabited islands off the coast of a peninsula also known as Gramvousa Peninsula in north-western Crete.
Driving some more than 10km on an um-made road to the car park, is not for the faint hearted.
After that, there is a hike down to a spectacular beach.... well worth the trip to Balos beach
The climb up to Helisima west of Valley Springs wasn't for the faint of heart, nor was the climb east of Valley Springs to Toyon. Here three GP9Es are in Run 8 with seven loaded coal cars and four empty cement hoppers in front of the caboose. My framing here is way too tight having cropped off the right side of the pilot and placed a weed squarely in front of the lead unit. Other than that, it would have been a decent shot.
It's a little hard to see the rarely used trail by the Prairie, but faint as it was, I was happy to have it and not have to bushwhack anymore!
a dangling light....very close to falling to the ground, with a bit of lr6 touch-up.
