Conor thanks, the inlaws are from Ireland (Galway area,came here 1960's), on paper my wife actually owns some of the family land. One of those wills where 10 people own the same piece. I'm sure I'll make it over there sometime, sounds pretty nice. Marc
I really have to move to Canada. It's nothing but overcast and rain here and never below 80% humidity when it _is_ clear... Awesome shot, sir. PI's dark structure enhance will do a number on that dust. It's worth a look.

Thanks guys. Checking my log book, I've been out 6 times since beginning of Jan. Have to admit, I passed on 2 nts when it was around 5'F, just didn't have it in me. Most of the clear nights have been Canadian high pressure systems that Luc throws down on us for a laugh. Those are just plain cold. Marc
NGC 1333 is a reflection nebula located in the constellation Perseus. It belongs to the Perseus molecular cloud.
Stole that line from Wikipedia...
Had to look this one up as well. You sure make the most of your little window Marc. Great grab...you certainly did get the dust, well worth the effort. Very nice job on the processing!
