> Unfortunately I'm in a Bortle 5 to 6 area Yeah that would do it. I'm in the western US and there are lots of Bortle 2 sites I can access in a weekend, and Bortle 1 sites I can access on a long weekend. There's even a Bortle 3 site I can get to after work just 2 hours from San Jose (Pinnacles National Park) which is exactly where I took that seagull nebula picture.
