:P Ahh yes the perennial one , M42, my attempt..... plus Comet Lovejoy {dreadful framing "rule of the thirds" ignored }. 10x5mins for both through a sx m25c and 90mm refractor. Cheers for looking and merry Xmas to all :)

Nice use of 90mm refractor on both counts. Well done with the comet.

Good ones Beren - thats a very wide 'Orion' field for a 90mm refractor - is it a few panels mosaic ?
Thanx . .

Cheers :thumbsup: {doh have to check calibrate my screen looks washed out on other screens:P}........Gday Bob it's the FOV with the dedicated reducer {flattens as well} for the little Tak Sky 90, goes from FL 500mm {F5.56} to FL 407mm {F4.5}.
