Wall space at last!

OK, just for laughs. SWMBO (She Who Must Be Obeyed) gave permission for yours truly to hang a few of his astrophotos in the TV lounge, provided the colours matched the decor! Since such a release of wall space is unlikely to be repeated this decade, I decided to make the prints LARGE. The one on the left is 1.2mx1.8m (roughly 4ftx6ft). This kind of backfired, because the cost of such a large print came to an astronomical $260 by the time it was mounted on a foam board and laminated :-( I got my youngest kid to point out M4 and recorded the layout for posterity, just in case they have to be taken down soon. Gotta teach them those Messiers early...
