No I haven't got guiding going yet along with a long list of things going wanting.
I have been concentrating on finishing the observatory which is a huge job which gets bigger and bigger...But I am not worrying about sorting so many things until I get everything in a permanent set up..at the moment it's just serious fun.
I am not taking darks or flats either...
But I can't help myself if there is a clear night I go with what is working that night..and sometimes that is only an unguided mount and the Nikon.
At the moment I am taking hopeless subs and wringing something out and getting to know Photoshop better than ever before.
I have a batch of stuff with dashes for stars and I am seeing if I can process them to be acceptable.. and turned out another painting...so busy.
