I'm off to Wiruna today with my kit, looks like tonight and tomorrow night will be clear and transparent but not great seeing? "God!.. I need an imaging fix! amen" :prey:

....I couldn't stand having to reprocess that Centaurus A...again :lol:

Buuut here's another reprocess anyway :

Forget the messier and NGC catalogue. I reckon Iceland the better target.

The Eskimo is too small for the 1140mm FL of the Starfire really (I have a pretty much set image train now) and as for M83....weeeeell :rolleyes:

Got a couple of FOV's in mind for the dark pristene skies though.....ya like surprises? :D

Leave in about an hour or so...I'm ecited :stargaze:

Mike
