Joe, your efforts are always improving. 4565 is one of my favorites, and your pic does it sufficient justice. Here's what I commented on your blog: I remember that John Dobson, when asked, also named 4565 as his favorite deep sky object. Joe, your perseverance is paying off well; that is certainly a nice pic, worthy of your effort. That night I was in Arches NP enjoying the same region of the sky. The following day while driving home I took SR10 north from I70 and as I passed through Castledale I actually thought of you, knowing that you like to do your imaging from the Wedge. Funny that you were there at the same time. I may head there soon myself and maybe we'll meet. Keep up your work, you're doing very well! To me, visual observations of 4565 always show a more pronounced "needle" than the pics. I wonder if it's possible to achieve the same effect in a photo. Are you up to the challenge?
