I too have images I've done with my 8" I quite like. I have a 5 times Powermate now I'm keen to try it but I've been a combination of sick/lazy and other personal problems and haven't bothered for way too long. I haven't even taken a camera out for 6 months or more, not like me.
Yes, stunning images with the 9.25 too.
I couldn't take a telescope out at the moment if I wanted to, I'd lose it in my lawn which I started to get to then the mower started playing up. It's only just over 60 years old (Victa Mayfair with wind up starter handle), things just don't last like they used to. Dirt in the carburettor (standard wire mesh filter only) and broken starter spring because I stupidly spun the crank backwards trying to remove fronds from those stupid palm trees which were locking the crank. I can strip the carby and replace the spring but just haven't gotten to anything, crook for the past couple of weeks. The joys of getting older and lazier.
Then there's the big hole I dug to pour concrete in and mount my pier. That stopped when the hole kept filling with water and my son having major personal issues which have seriously impacted my life.
Were I smarter I'd have dug the hole ANYWHERE but where I used to set my mount on the levelled pavers (sloping yard)
Still, I'm loving your images!
If I eventually get my lawn done I've acquired an astro-trac, older model and looking forward to getting out with it and the Nikon D810 one day.
