See http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=4170&g2_imageViewsIndex=1. You can clearly see the jet. Thanks Patrick.

p.s. Hey Joe, I'm flying the jump plane at Skydive Utah this afternoon. Isn't it about time you come on out and make a jump? :)

It's such a nice night tonight that once I finished with my regular imaging I turned to M-87 again.
This time I shot 20 one minute guided exposures with the clear filter. And, unlike the other night, there is no Moon in the sky. And judging from the images, the seeing is much better too.
Again, the jet is there but just barely.
However, I've a feeling that someone willing to put in the time to stack the images and then do a bit of processing might be able to make a better shot.
Anyone care to give it a go?
Let me know if you are and I'll zip and post tonight's images along with a master dark and master flat for download.
patrick
