Of the 900 or so frames that PIPP ended up with, I then went through them manually in AS!3, only selecting those that were not overexposed, blurry or otherwise unsuitable. This left 37 frames, the best of which is shown here .

Focus was pretty easy, I just focused on a bright star (Sirius) and then left it alone.

Here's an animated gif of some of the "other" frames that weren't quite as good as the first one.

Yeah, Congratts in order for sure as I definately know what it takes to capture Beauties like this

I don't have any scopes these days, giving it all a rest for while, well after doing it for 20-25yrs.
I may even restart down the track

These couple of my best from back in 2013 might interest you - check em-out
