Finally some sun today; had a great session visually then tried to capture some of the features...

Not sure how you guys get the resolution that you get.. obviously, I have a long, long way to go...

Lunt 60PT, 1100d & used a barlow objective to zoom in a little.... tried the ZWO ASI224MC, had some issues with fits format & lack of colour... slowly figuring that out. Couldn't get the ZWO to come to focus with a 0.5x reducer... not enough in travel on the focuser, even with the diagonal shoved up tight....

Nevermind... please feel free to critique, offer advice & especially explain how some of you guys get extremely tight resolution & features...
