summer medley
Hi all,
It's taken me around 18 months to get my 10'Newt to behave on my Neq6 for astrophotography. With some modifications and re engineering of the focuser and DSLR adaptor I have finally managed to produce some images I'm happy with. I have been a keen follower of this forum and have learnt some handy tips and am grateful for the knowledge passed on.
These pics were taken recently all unguided using a Canon 60D full spectrum mod for 20subs at 15 to 40sec in rural metro NE. Tracking at this stage has been a struggle wrestling the 1250 focal range Newtonian but its doing OK when conditions are favourable. The setup is heavy to say the least given I used it for visual prior to getting involved in AP.
I have plenty to improve on no doubt, particularly post processing but its been fun getting to this point. I wanted to share these as a mark of my progress, and happy to receive comments good/otherwise.
