Bernard, Great job! I really like the way the H-II regions show up. I tried imaging NGC253 recently at the antennas site but the seeing was terrible. Plus, this object never gets very high. I wonder if you have a way of remotely judging the seeing at the Rancho Hidalgo site, especially for best resolution in the lumanence exposures.
