Sirius – the brightest star in the night sky:

I managed to acquire the second frame to this Sirius 2-frame mosaic on 1/1/2013.  Hopes that this was a good omen for better weather in 2013 were soon dashed with days of cloud and rain to follow 🙁  Never mind.  Here is a 3.3 x 3.4 degree field of view of the Sirius region taken with the mini-WASP array from the New Forest Observatory.  Processing courtesy Noel Carboni, Florida, U.S.A.
