Re: [APML] M17 - M17 Schmidt Montage

Gorgeous! Chris, your skies must be so much clearer than most of us get 
to see.

My skies last night were really good but the moon was up too soon to 
take pics.  Visually I have seldom had such transparent skies. With my 
4" Vixen achromat, I was finding everything easily and seeing detail 
I've not seen through this small scope very often. Spent a nice 2 hours 
just enjoying the views.

Tonight I'm testing the infinity point on my Zenitar 16mm lens 
wide-open. Wish me luck!
