The high cloud and poor conditions can get stuffed, I'm imaging regardless after a long break from DSO's!!!!

Excellent series of shots Andy, just one question where do you find the time to do all this.

I work 4 nightshifts then have 4 nights off, every week. ;)

Might go and take some flats but then again I was only messing around as its been a while so I didn't bother with guiding or accurate polar alignment.. :ph34r:

On the plus side - flocking has made a noticeable difference to visual observations, eyeballed M65 and M66 (49% moon) and the Moon was like it was in 3D.

M51, my favourite.

They are all great, but there's something about M51, two for the price of one.
