This time of year I get a ton of snow in a major storm followed by -35C temps. But no hurricanes any time of the year so I'll take the snow. My seeing is awful in winter. I'll have to settle for looking at your excellent photos. Mars is a orange amoeba in the scope this time of the year from up here.

Great work. Constant humidity and cloud here. Nearly subtropical. Hoping for a clear night soon.

Kind regards
Matt

JAICOA, I hope one day I can produce images as good as yours. If you stopped posting your work I would truly be saddened. You are one of the best Astrophotographers out there, kudos my friend, keep up the excellent work.
