Having all kinds of troubles with tracking. Tried this to see if it had improved.
20 x 90 secs @ ISO 800

Hi Raymo - looking very good from my perspective. Are you autoguiding yet? - If not at 90seconds you are very nicely polar aligned.

Thanks Bruce; no autoguiding yet. Not likely in the near future. The subs
that make up this image only had perfectly round stars up to about the
65 sec mark. I am having all sorts of problems with tracking. I normally get around 100-120 secs when I persist with getting the P.A. the best
I can.

Nice image Raymo for 90sec subs.
Stars look pretty good but hard to tell with the image scale.
I like the tarantula colours sure is a great target.

Thank you Michael. If you enlarge your screen to 175%, you'll soon see that the stars are far from round.
