A wonderfull night in Grandpré

With some patience the skies opened in Grandpré. We could enjoy those dark skies with 5 observers from our traditional “gite”. SQM measured 21,37 but the skies were still a bit hazy at that point, and improved visibly later on.

Work in progress: the area of the ‘Little Eagle’ in Taurus. It’s only 40′ of lights (I spent lots of time of learning how to image again 😉
