Been a while since I posted anything. Proof you can still take nice photos from light polluted areas (like Los Gatos). Messier 33, about 3 hrs light, 3 hrs narrow band. 13" astrograph.

Brilliant for just 3 + 3 hours, but I am sure the 13inch mirror helps. No diffraction spikes?

There are some on the brightest stars. I'm happier about the round stars at the corners. New 2.5" Riccardo designed coma corrector.
