Finally got average seeing, AND and Io transit, AND on a non work night!

I have been under 1/5 and 2/5 seeing forecasts for so long I was excited to see 3/5 on the forecast, especially with clear skies AND on a Friday WITH an Io Transit. 

The seeing was in an out of avg with some real moments of almost good, so I gave it a 3+/5

I gave the night a good solid 50x RGB runs and kept the best 8.

Deroated and composited.

My winter galactic fun

 I always love the longer winter nights, they're cold and there's tons of my favorite DSO to observe.  Galaxies to me are all so unique and far away!


Here's NGC2336, with specs: Dist:90–100 MLY, Size:7.1′×3.9′, Mag:10.3 V, Type:SAB(r)bc (barred spiral)
