Thu/Fri, July 26/27, 2001

The sky was clear all night with excellent transparency! Temperature range was +20C to +13C with small breezes all night -- very comfortable as long as you wear a warm jacket! There was a searchlight beaming across the sky again tonight until it was finally shut off around 1am. I imaged NGC 6210, 7008, 7048, 7023, and finally 7354 (taken during the early part of twilight!).
