Subject: M10 and M11
Hi Folks;
I've posted two new DSO images of M10 and M11 that I took last night.

Details on scope, mount cameras etc. is embedded in the images.
Unfortunately transparency was bad starting off at about Mag 2 and by
3:30am the visual limiting magnitude was 0. I could only make out
about 10 stars in M11 at 3:30 am when I packed it in. Trying to image
nebulas would have been a waste of time.
All the rain we've had over the past 10 days is evaporating and
leaving a lot of haze, which hopefully will burn off tonight. I also
hope to re-try my Antares ALP light pollution filter tonight too.
Clear Skies..
