Getting the hang of drift alignment so had a go at Tuc 47. 20secs on the DSI and just used digital development in Nebulosity. Quite pleased with the result :)

Bill that looks real good for your first try at Tucanae.

Can you save it as a larger file in jpeg as the thumbnail will only open up as a very small bmp file.

Nice image there Bill. Tight cluster, well-rounded stars and well resolved quite deep into the center. What scope?

Used the 150x750 Newtonian on the EQ5. Getting focus took a while so will have to finish the hartman mask I started making. I have a 10:1 Crayford for it, but need to make an adapter plate as its for a 233mm tube.
