I recently took my FSQ106 out of moth-balls as I was curious to see how it would go with the QHY183c OSC camera.

A sucker hole opened up over Sydney last night, and I managed to bag a few short test shots.

Have to say...despite the vanilla subject matter the result wasn't too shabby.
In many ways getting the data was too easy...I couldn't find where I put the autoguider cable...and at 500mm didn't need the guider anyway.

Almost point and click.
Processing the rather large data files took a while, but did not require anything more than "pack neatly and stack".

A few tweaks in Photoshop CC but that was it.
