[Utah-astronomy] Mat at his Dobsonian

Here's a pic I took the other day of Mat Hutchings at his 16-inch Dob (he made all of this impressive instrument himself, including grinding the mirror). The fuzzy orbs aren't UFOs, they are because of dust in the air or on the lens; the dark figure behind Mat isn't a ghost, but where Mat stood back a bit from the scope after the flash went off, and blocked some of the starlight. The pic was a 30-second exposure at ISO 1600, with flash. http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=4723&g2_imageViewsIndex=1
