Wow. What an impressive photo! Amazingly tight stars. Lucky you. Great scope and nicely processed too.

I'm curious about your impression of seeing. Must have been pretty good. What range is your FWHM for the subs?

Stars are nice and round pretty much to the edges so I'm rather impressed with the scope so far. It's quite a bit of telescope for the price.
Very nice first light Dave ...looking forward to my upcoming first light too, hope it looks as good as this one

I just ran the fits Lum. subs through CCDInspector. FWHM ranges from 1.89 to 2.04. Telescope was at 66 down to 64 degree altitude. Subs were 2 minutes.

Im normally around FWHM 3

When processing Pixinsight masked stretch helps.
