Just playing around with PHD...It kinda guided for a while. Gave me the sh... So I went back to manual guiding.

Anyway, here's Orion again. 12 minutes. Darks subtracted.

Getting bored with this one.

Seriously considering a more expensive mount. Forks suck.

Not bad Barry.
M42 is finally where I can do long exp's, so I am just beginning my M42 season.
Sometimes I wish I had a fork mount. Swapping at the zenith can be a pain.
Well done.

That's a mighty fine effort for manual guiding at that focal length Barry. You must have a mighty fine eye and lightening quick reflexes!

Cheers

Thanks guys,

Better reflexes than a guide program anyway....;)

Well done Barry, you've brought out the core and the Trap quite nicely.

Cheers
