Astro related DOHs
Thinking the focus is ok because i didnt want to go get the glasses on to check it properly.... run of images wasted
then getting a focusing mask and doing a run with it left on ( a common one it seems)
setting everything up nicely , the last thing before comencing imaging is to set the frame time, got the 1200 right , just overlooked making it Seconds instead of milliseconds..... lots and lots of unusable frames.
tearing out what little hair is left, trying to find a guide star to guide on, finally giving up and off to another target..... yep cap left on guidescope.
Setting up the framing , getting guiding calibrated etc, afterimaging discovering i must have bumped the scope out of polar alignment somehow prior to imaging... all images useless.
probably others i cant remember, problem is i just know ... one day ... i will do some of them again. DOH !!!!!!
