I imaged from Oshawa tonight with the MX9. Temperature range was from +2C to -2C (21:00 to 06:15). I set up a wind break to help block the wind. Transparency was average tonight. The sky was a little murky in the south, but I finished off the night with M8 anyway, despite not being able to get as tight a focus as I would have liked. M8 didn't quite clear a neighbouring cherry tree (see image below) -- I figured I better do M8 before the leaves burst forth!
