Had a bit of a run recently - buzzed all over the sky - didn't spend more than 5x3 mins and some were a lot less. Lagoon was only 100seconds.
Testing my new Canon 70d is fun.
Now to go back and do them all properly

Hi Jennifer
I think your images are wonderful.
I have been wondering if I should get back into imaging but frankly the complexity has been putting me off but you clearly demonstrate that one can do great work without the complexity (as I see it) of an astro camera.
In a he past my mount and short fl could run 100 unguided no problems.
I would like to see what say a stack of five or six would produce.
Anyways keep up the good work.
Well done.
Alex

Nice collection indeed. Looking forward to seeing the "proper ones".

What scope?

The cam is controllable but max 30 seconds. You can also download pics.
But it easy to just connect the usb.
Scope was Saxon ED100.

Really nice Jennifer! The ED100 is a great scope, photographically slow but briliant to use :)

Nice quickies! Have I been a bad influence? ;)
