The moment that you see the last post is the same as the one you've been working on :question::lol: Here is 27 Subs and 3 darks at 10sec :eyepop: ( I've finally improved my tracking errors :thumbsup:) ISO1600 stacked is Sequator . no post edit as it blew out the bright stars with the histogram all the way to the left . Just had a look back to June last year and WOW ,practice and persistence is the key to improvement! Cheers

Wielding a 2540mm Focal length dob around in Alt Az is a challenge that is keeping me engaged to see what is possible . Whats next ? , I have been reading that I can plug a guide scope into the servocat although it's myth at best to me at the moment. ....
