This was acquired during March and April 2016, under pretty mediocre skies.  I did get some nice conditions for most of the L data.  This really needs more focal length (and better seeing) to get more detail, but I am happy with the result -- for now.  Paying attention to several commenters' remarks that previous images of mine seemed rather dark, I was careful to leave the background fairly bright for this image.

Clear skies,
