    My last clear, stable, moonless night allowing for deep sky astrophotography, not Moon or Planet, but Nebula and Galaxy hunting, was on June 24th. That is until September 6th. Yep, horrible weather here in Western NC pretty much ruined the whole summer for this aspect of the hobby. I thoroughly enjoyed the last couple of evenings. And the equipment all behaved! Images captured with 10" f5 GSO Newtonian, EQ-6r Skywatcher mount, zwo asi294 mc pro camera, and my first use of a new filter - the Optolong L-enhance narrowband light pollution filter. The filter really made an astounding difference. Color balance is remarkable. So here are a few of the summer favorite Nebula

    All totally amazing images, squeege! Astrojournal quality, here! You're capturing some top-shelf images with that filter; can't wait to see more!
