Hallo south guys!
Last week I took picture of double cluster in Perseus. Now we have cold in Czech Republic. I took picture around 0 degree celsius. I modified my equipment. I upgraded my mount to EQ - 6 Skyscan and for autoguider I have software Guidemaster and LPI camera.

equipment: Skywatcher ED 80/600, Canon EOS 350 D unmodified,
exposure: 7 x 5 min, ISO: 800
processed: Subraw, Adobe Photoshop 7.0 CE

You can see my first light with new modifications! :rofl:

Did you cool the camera???

Just kidding .

Very nice capture and it seems you have good color in your stars.

Not a bad mount at all. You must be very happy after that capture.
