Last night the guiding was terrible.
The irony is I took ages to balance everything...I did not get around to addressing the problem as it took me an hour and a half to set up as I had to pull it all down and put it away for the Pink weekend.
But just setting up again I learnt a few things...make a work flow check list☺
I turned the filter wheel around to gain mount clearance and as a result the camera had to be rotated 180 degrees so when I went to get more data for the Prawn Nebula it was upside down.
And so I tried stacking the first images with the upside down images in Deep Sky Stacker and surprise it stacked them.
Nice to know...but I felt the cold and had to give it in at 11 pm and only managed 15 HA subs...I think tonight I will just work on getting things working better as I have enough data to play with.
Yesterday I purchased a little drawing pad which should help with processing...it makes it easy to draw with the lasso tool for example.
Baby steps baby steps.
