G'day everyone, newbie to astro photography here, only been at it a couple of months. Got myself setup with an HEQ5 and an Evostar 72 ED. On the back is a Canon 1100d I modified myself removing both filters and adding in a CLS-CCD clip in filter. All from my backyard in Ipswich Qld, around 5 Bortle skies.
This was my first proper run with everything, 40 x 3min subs, 10 darks 29 bias. No flattener on the system yet, trying to find a non reducing one local but might have to go overseas I think. Little ZWO camera and scope for guiding. First time dithering as well and that worked amazing.
Anyway, I'm very happy with how this one came out, next is to try and get a lot more time on a target and see what I can do.
