Again, I was having issues with wind and moisture, and shooting into the "Great Glare Of The North". Here are the last couple of items I shot, mostly to serve as baselines for future shots.
M97, The Owl Nebula, found near Beta Ursae Majoris, or in the bowl of the Big Dipper. It's a planetary nebula, formed when stars similar to ours die out; they are actually relatively common, but always beautiful to look at.
M108, a smallish (to me at least) galaxy between the Owl Nebula and Beta Ursae Majoris, the lower right star in the Big Dipper if you are viewing it "rightside up".
A month later, I reprocessed the shot these two items were cropped from. No more detail, but easier to see.
This post shows the later version.
