Hi everyone,

so it was day 4 of self isolation, and the night was looking promising.

The wind had come up, so I opted for a refractor.

Target was Orion again.

This time using a modded DSLR for imaging.

It was good to be communicating with members who were also out
enjoying the sky, sharing texts and such through the night.

Images were taken using Astro Photography Tools.

I have posted a sub ISO 6400 30 seconds in the hope of having
some insight as to the strange `7` shapes in the stars.

I am thinking it may be the lack of guiding at that point ?

A Batinov mask was used to as focusing.

Thanks for looking.

Paul.
