Nice job Al...then you blew a fuse :P

I will refrain from doing a Sidonio on your image in case Dave and Doug decide to lynch me for doing it to theirs...all three of you would be hard to handle :lol:

Nice one. Looks like you need a flattener now to correct the coma in the corners.

There are a few around. Televue .8X reducer/flattener, William Optics and I believe APM sells generic flatteners for different sized scopes.

That tis a nice shot Alan - congrats. It looks like m42 is definitely on my hit list this summer - I'm really impressed with how everyone is imaging m42.

Very nice Alan, It is a much harder target than we give it credit for.

Well done.
