Really well done Lee, lots of faint fuzzies in the background and especially along the left side of the frame. It’s nicely detailed

Thanks Colin!

I know the feeling of needing to bloody well process something!

Thanks Mike :-) When'll you be back at it again? You've got all your new gear finally, right?

Is it just me or do the stars look a little streaky, all in the same direction? TL -> BR? Could just be my eyes of course

Cheers Dunk :-)

Not your eyes mate, unless it's mine too. That's what I was referring to when I said that I thought the collimation was out. I don't think it's guiding; it doesn't line up with either ra or dec. I think it's also slightly worse towards the top left than the bottom right. I've had similar issues in the past that I believe were were caused by the mirror sticking to one of the cork pads which may cause astigmatism and might also lead to a bit of collimation shift. Last time I noticed the mirror was stuck on the pad I was seeing shift, which was resolved after freeing the mirror from the pad. Thinking I should replace the pads, or the cell entirely, not sure what with though.
