My imaging is somewhat on hold right now since it's been rather cloudy here at night lately - and Mr. Royce has notified me he finished the 12.5" mirror so I expect to receive it soon, just in time for the clear summer nights. Then I'll put the new OTA together and go galaxy hunting, wohoo!
Hi Rolo, thanks mate...dunno how you maintain the patience to go for long exposures liiike saaaay...120hrs?..I start of thinking, right! going to go looong on this one...then the weather gets cranky, clouds get in the road etc,...and after a few annoying nights...meah.. I get bored ee

Great news on the 12.5" ...an extra 0.5" over me now..?.. humf!

Mike
