[Chaos-l] [Medoc-mountain-men] Medoc tonight yes

[Robert Nielsen]

What I like about some of these photos that we are taking are the little things they show (and now make me want to find in the eyepiece).   In this case, it's the little arc of stars just above and slightly to the left of the 'ghost'.

Nice photo, Matt ...
