20251208 Short Session - M15 (45 minutes) + M35 with NGC2158 + IC 434/B33 Horsehead Nebula with NGC 2024 Flame Nebula

Before Storm Bram came, it has a small break of clouds tonight from 8:00pm, maybe for one or two hours.

It has been raining all days, even worse for the upcoming days.

So, it's the time for S30 again.  The sky was not entirely clear but something could be done especially it involves virtually zero effort in setting things up.

First up is M15, a small globular cluster:


Next is a open cluster M35, with a smaller one NGC 2158 next to it:


Finally, the sky was even clearer after the anticipated clear period, so I moved to the horsehead B33 and the flame nebula NGC 2024, around one hour of exposure:


Again, the best telescope is the one that you can use the most.
