Re: [APML] Back to a film image-Rho Ophiuchus

[Omega Centauri <omega.centauri@gmail.com>]

Hi John,

nice image indeed! May I ask you how much high in the sky is the Rho
Ophiuci region at the time you shot at it? I'm having problems from my
site because it is very low and light pollution spoils any image I get
of this subject.

Thanks
Nicola
