[QUOTE="Whiskeyman, post: 737572, member: 13556"] To me, the first consideration for astro-photography is a dark sky, devoid of as much lunar and terrestrial lighting as possible. The second consideration is clear skies. It doesn't matter how good you are and your equipment is; if the subject isn't clear and in contrast to the background, you're starting at a significant disadvantage. You might be fortunate to have more than three to six nights each year when conditions are really good for deep space photography. These nights typically occur in the cooler months, right after a frontal passage. WM [/QUOTE]
