M8 Lagoon - First Light for New Scope

I finally got the new scope out last night. I had new scope issues... making things work as I wanted them and general setup. Once that was sorted I pointed it at M8 and ran some 4 min exposures. I wanted 20 but the clouds thought otherwise so I got 14... then the battery died before I could complete the darks, let alone flats and bias so I packed it up.



I have a lot to learn about processing but here's my first real attempt with a decent scope. The difference between the entry level Saxon and this is mind blowing.
