Dear List members, Its cloudy tonight, so I thought you might want to be cheered up with a new image. This is the deepest shot of the elusive zodiacal band I have taken yet. It was taken in Winton Australia, and readily shows the Gegenschien as a very bright patch, and with this image as well, you can directly compare the Magellenic clouds with M31. I noticed that the core of M31 appears very yellow while the LMC appears more white. http://www.schursastrophotography.com/xtiastro/winton08-5.html Comments?
