DSOs despite average to poor sky

Started around 9:30pm. Setup was quick because I didn't not tear down the telescope the last time. Observed for about 2 hours. There were some high clouds from the start and conditions only got worse but managed to stack some DSOs nonetheless.

Observations:

  • Jupiter and Saturn: through the 3mm and with the camera
  • M31 (Andromeda Galaxy) - Andromeda
  • M33 (Triangulum Galaxy) - Triangulum
  • C63 (Helix Nebula) - Aquarius
  • C4 (Iris Nebula) - Cepheus
  • NGC 7380 (Wizard Nebula) - Cepheus
  • IC 1396 (Elephant's Trunk Nebula) - Cepheus
