yeah, with really lots of sand flies....until almost drove me crazy....not much visual activity though due to heavy cloud cover, otherwise when there were clear patches, we saw the brighter stuff like ngc1976, m1, m41, m93, etc...
did managed to capture a small sunspot group, but not too good. for ccd, on m42, but by the time the clearing was over, did not expose the blue channel. sigh.
