M106 & friends was created by phoenix
Taken on Friday night. 70 mins luminance and 30 minutes each for RGB using the TMB. The last decent run at colour imaging I had was back in early Feb. Why do we do this with the weather we have?

320


Also managed to catch an asteroid during the imaging run which Dave McDonald was kind enough to identify as (1817) Katanga.
