First ever attempts
Crop sensor Nikon atop my newly acquired NEQ6 Pro. Never even seen a proper mount before two days ago so this is all very very new to me.
Both 8 lights + flats + darks, stacked in DeepSkyStacker, edited in & exported from Lightroom.
Omega Centauri = 9 x 30 seconds, 200mm at f/2.8, ISO 800.
Orion = 8 x 25 seconds, 200mm at f/4, ISO 1600.
They're nothing compared to the other images gracing these pages, and I've got lots to learn about processing & post editing, but I'm still unreasonably pleased with myself... the stars are dots, not lines!! Amazing!! I somehow got a reasonable polar alignment first go!
