hh/flame & m45 with refractor diff spikes!

last night was a very fun night for me, yesterday was a very cloudy day, the sky cleared up later in the evening with heavy winds.

i decided to take my scope out, the conditions wernt very great at all , heavy winds all night and small ammounts of clouds everynow and then

i ended up taking around 30photos but most of them where discarded due to the bad conditions, however i managed to make progress through these conditions.

allso i pushed my exposure times. i am quite pleased with these

got my scope out again tonight

i have some darkframes too but i havent used them cause im not really sure how to.

iso 800, through the ED80 on HEQ5 no guiding.

8 x 3mins - hh/flame

4 x 3min - pelaides

the refractor diffraction spikes where added with JohnG's method posted under the diy section, thanks john.

tell me what you think.

Thanks

Adrian.
