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.
