Hi all
last night was very chilly and very clear, seeing was pretty good too, was as careful as possible to get best focus on the Triffid. Image is 8x10 mins ISO200, UV/IR filter, modded 350D, 10 inch f5.6 newt.
hand off axis guided. was very careful with the guiding and found a guidestar bright enough to use the ZWO guide cam unbinned. had used Sharpcap 3.1 to get polar alignment to within arc seconds of the SCP, hardly any dec adjustments were made.
