Nova in Sagittarius 3/29/15


  A couple of weeks ago a nova was discovered in the constellation Sagittarius.  Yesterday I tried to look for it from my house but found that the trees in my neighborhood blocked my view of that part of the sky.  Too bad because yesterday the sky was much more transparent than today.  
   I woke before dawn this morning and saw that it was somewhat clear out, so I packed my camera and headed for a unobstructed southeast horizon,   





  Not the most impressive photos but it's only the second nova I've ever photographed.  For more information here is a link to Bob King's astronomy blog. astrobob - Nova in Sagittarius
