Hi All,

Here is a picture Michael (Tilt) and I took last night with the NA140 and the DSI III. Taken of the tarantula in 03 2mins x 18 at 23-26 degrees.

Cheers

Wow, that's very nice guys. Beautiful details in there. :thumbsup:

[CoolhandJo]

Wow. Now that's detail! What temp was it running?

[CoolhandJo]

Oops. Just realised you already mentioned the temp!

Fine monochromatic image

Thanks everyone. Yes we were pretty pleased. Started a little late but it was nice to get a clear night for a change.

It will be nice when daylight savings finishes and the sun is setting a little earlier.

Eagerly awaiting the colour filter wheel.

Cheers
David

hehehe about the sun setting a bit earlier.... it rises earlier too.... :) I thought that it would be great not having DLS.... but the sun started rising at 330am! how wrong is that!

Great Image guys, lots of texture and depth in that.

:thumbsup:Alex.

Plenty of detail for 2 min. subs in warm conditions with no cooling. Was the O111 filter your visual one if so even more amazing.
Clear skies Ken.

Afraid so Ken - my GSO O3 filter! The DSI 3 does pretty well under about 20 degrees. Really even a cooling fan might just about do the trick (have to try and rig something up).

Working on those clear skies but unreliable tonight. Looking forward to the crab and eskimo hopefully. (Crab was behind the only tree to the north at the time!)

Thinking about a 1.25 inch baader narrowband set (approx 450 us for set of 4?). Have you been happy with yours?

Cheers

Very nice David, good detail,focus and well guided.

Nice collaberated image.

Hi Doug and Alex,

Thanks for the kind comments. Certainly collaboration is the way to go Doug - it makes the imaging more enjoyable. Also allows for experimentation as the amount of equipment available is much greater, better problem solving and quicker learning the varoius techniques.

David I only have a O111 and LRGB from Baader , they seem to work well.
Clear skies Ken.
