Hi Jim;
Very nice shot. I like those blue white faintly glowing clouds.
The weather here has been bad with ice fog, snow, clouds and temperatures of -8 to -30°C. I've had one mediocre night and managed to image NGC 891 and then captured Luma for M81. I'm hoping the sky will clear up before the moon gets too bright later this week.
And everyone have a great, safe christmas and a happy new year.

It finally cleared after more than a week and I managed to image the boring side of Mars, however the consolation was some neat cloud formations there were visible this morning.
