ngc1365 wide

Hi all,
still waiting on my F4 10" Royce mirror to roll up for my now completed atrograph newt ota. so the ed80 is the only choice at the mo....
The lum to this object I've had waiting around for the last month, still very pleasant experience using the Orion ED80 for wide field images.
Got out at 9pm, was after some colour on another object, but the guide computer that has been giving me grief, decided to die.
After taking it inside, rebuilding the thing then getting out again, it was around 11pm.
Conditions were quite poor with high thin cloud waffling through, but guiding behaved remarkably well.
So was quite happy with the out come to even have acomplished anything.
Usually these nights I give up in disgust.
Anyway, here's a link to the image via my front page, click on left thumb if
you'd like to take a look...

Hope you've all been able to get out

Cheers for now
Rich
