Hi Murray,
Very nice work given you’ve only been at it for a few months. Well done.
As far as your focus goes. Point your scope at one of the brightest stars and use your Bahtinov mask. You can increase the ISO to create clearer defraction lines and then bring it back down when you slew to your target. Everything up there has the same focus point so you don’t have to do it on your target. Try to use a star in the region you’ll be imaging though so you’re looking through a similar amount of atmosphere. Anteres would be a good choice for you for this object.
Well done again.
Cheers
Ryan
