I just joined up and figure I'll post a shot of centaurus globular.

I have the same problem as everyone else, very cloudy for the last month so no chance to get any new Images, I almost got mars the other night.

SO basicly I've gone over some older Images and redone them.

10" skywatcher reflector
HEQ5
unmodded canon 350D
can't remember the exposure's,
I believe it was about 10x 1minute iso 800

for a larger Image Cent large (http://www.boomspeed.com/lemming/cent_large.jpg) about 450K

yeah, I figured I should join up, give me something to do with all this bad weather

and thanks for all the compliments. This has to be my favorite photo yet. I have it printed out on an A4 and laminated and you can see a lot of stars as well as the owl eye's in the center.

Thats good tracking for an unguided shot :) nice round stars there.

yeah, It's not bad tracking.

the only realy problem is on the larger on the stars out on the edge aren't round, they are a little strected out, I think due to the primary mirror.

But who is looking at the edges?
