This is my first photo with my new 115 mm triplet that I purchased from Glen.
I am so happy
...I have not been well and frankly did not even take it out of the box (a beautiful box built by Glen that is a work of art) when I got it home as I became crook the day after I picked it up so....
Tonight I decided to have a look at it...
I expected to have to play with spacing so I was not expecting to do anything other than measure stuff..but I thought "lets set up and see what will need to be done"put on the reducer and the zwo....I rolled the focuser out to where I thought would be a good place to start and pointed it up at nothing in particular..started Sharpcap and I could not believe my eyes when I adjusted the exposure and gain...it was near perfect focus..slight adjustment and it looked perfect..no mask..just zoomed in and adjusted by eye...so no spacing issues it seems.
Anyways as I am still not feeling well I thought to get a Moon shot so ran off about 25 subs and later ran them through Registax...I was going to take RBG but I just captured in L. Lucky I did not have big plans as the inverter started to beep and shut off..everything is 240 vlt so that was it...I was not up to putting petrol in the genny so called in a night.
Anyways here it is...played around in photo shop and I know it could be better but I can not express how happy I am to have got this tonight and how happy I am with the scope...thanks Glen.
