And also Mercator - close to the heavens

Observing run from 27th November to 8th December

It is my 2nd time here at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, La Palma. Last time, I forgot my camera. What a mistake. Now I come back for a 2nd observing run on the Mercator telescope. And I have brought my numerical reflex Canon. Do not do twice the same error.
