Would love to be chasing Neowise like everyone else but can't see it from where I am; so here's 5 hours worth of Antares and Rho Ophiuchi from under Bortle 5 suburban sky:

I just checked Antares wikipedia and it is 1000 times larger than the sun. And Betelgeuse dwarfs Antares. The mystery of the universe deepens.

Damn, if only you were able to see Neowise...would love to see what you'd come up with.

So apparently I will be able to see Neowise next month onward I think...fingers crossed that's the case and weather clears so I can get a few shots!

Beautiful. I've attempted this target several times in April and May but sadly Scorpio raises really low at our location and there is quite a lot of light pollution in that direction. So my only hope is to get a decent filter to supress at least some of it for the next season.
