Something fuzzy.... was created by whyulittle
Was just reviewing some photos that I took a while back, when I spotted some little fuzzy patch in a couple of them. I wasn't in my normal location, so I'd be guessing that they were taken looking north-westerly at about 22:15 on the 20th of November, here , and here .

Whilst being harrassed by a couple of horses earlier on in the night, I got this nice capture :)

Andromeda was in the South at that time/date...

M101 was in the North (mag 7.5) and there was a 14th Mag comet in the NW but that's probably too faint...

I can't match the starfields though. A bit of a puzzle....

Cheers

Dave

Actually now that I think about it, it was more to the north than the north-west. Polaris wasn't too far off up to the right. Cheers Dave.
