It looks like medical school takes up more time than I imagined! I am just about managing to carry on doing some astrophotography but evidently not keeping up with the blog.
Here's a summary of the astronomy things I've been up to in the past year:
I finished off the Flaming Star image with OIII and I was pleased to see some signal there.
I took advantage of a free trial on iTelescope.net which allows you to take control of telescopes over the internet and take images of objects you choose. I raced through 4 globular clusters!
M13 is my favourite with the nice star colours and it pops as if 3D!
Hopefully more clear skies and images to come now summer is here!
