Sorry friends, I know you have missed my witty persiflage.
Anyhoo, down to business.
Whilst away from the forum got my Canon 60Da central DS modded with the cooler, so apart from the fact it looks like a fridge attached to a microwave, here is first light.
Clouds are tremendously popular around here so had to sneak out at night when the normal folks were doing rain dances or putting out bush fires.
Suffice to say has been slim pickings.
Delay no more
Here I present, a humble trio of the blob, the spider and the collection of distant blurry bits AKA Tarantula , Ghost of Jupiter and the Fornax galaxy cluster centred on 1399 I think. On the big version you can see the nebulous galaxy 1427A I think, the one being pulled apart by the groups tidal forces.
Went back for more tonight but got just the cloudy finger.
Hey, I know you all missed me!
5 min subs with CLS filter on CentralDs modded Canon 60Da, iso-800-1200,
Tak 120, guided with PHD, SSAG, APT, darks, flats and darkflats.
Hey! I missed you!
Grazza

Hi Grazza,
of course everyone missed you. :)
I think you could have got a bit more out of those images with some greater processing.

cheers
