Patrick, I want to do a blog about it, but I'm waiting a couple of days while I'm doing some Christmas-type tasks. WHenever you'd like to send me pics, I'll be overjoyed to get them.

And speaking of imaging tonight this has got to be one of the better nights in a while. Seeing is very transparent and steady, temperature is staying very constant (it's dropped less than 1 degree in the past 4 hours) and the stars are tiny and well defined. I seem to remember that David R is currently in southern Utah to do some imaging. If he's out tonight (Are you David?) he's probably getting some great shots. patrick _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Visit the Photo Gallery: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php Visit the Wiki: http://www.utahastronomy.com
