About this image

Horribly blurry Hind's nebula.

The mirror was 60% covered with ice when I started and later the images were blurred by the heater being used to slowly evaporate the ice. 

Bottom line: poor quality image with blobby stars, but it does show the current nebula state and means I did not waste an hour waiting for the mirror to clear....

Asteroid at bottom right.
