Hi all,
after much adjusting and sorting out a few minor issues with my home built newt astrograph, after my Bob Royce primary rolled up last Thursday, I think i've almost got things sorted.
After band practice last night the sky miraculously cleared.
I had to check my collimation and MPCC spacing to see if all was ok... so after finding things looked good, I kept going.
Super short exposures, and my mount which I bumped hard earlier on was out.
But managed to scrape in 20sec exposures.

I'm really going to love imaging with this...
Here's a link to some images of the scope, just scroll down....

Cheers all, hope your getting out and having fun.
