Haven't had much luck down in Melbourne with the weather of late so I took the opportunity when it arose.

Got 40x 300sec subs on the GSO - 550 f.4 connected to the ASI294mc and recently installed home made pier :thumbsup:

If you haven't got a pier do yourself a favour.

Thanks to a good mate for the processing tips and tricks in pixinsight !

A really nice result there. You’ve revealed heaps of detail without pushing the processing too far so comes across very natural. Beautiful!

Thanks Dave !! After finally getting collimation sorted on the Newt the data is coming through crystal clear.

Very nice.

For some reason this has always been a troublesome target for me. Could never really do it justice.

Thanks Marc and Steve ! Super happy with the result..
I went through the same dilemma Rene.. collimation and processing were the biggest hurdles for me. Finally got my stars looking ok :thumbsup:
