fantastic views (Blue Mountains)

When Grey commandeered the C14, I exited the GBO. Fortunately, Ian W still had the huge Dobsonian up and running.

It was awesome.

The Andromeda galaxy was fantastic! (Messier 31 or M31.)

The Double Cluster (aka Caldwell 14, with NGC 869 and 884) was fantastic! I saw colours. Many stars.

Viewed NGC 752 (aka Caldwell 28). Open cluster between Tri and And.

Then returned to Neptune, near 21h39m34s, -14°22'18".
