Omega Centauri

Now have my mount tracking reasonably well (+/- 1.2 arcsecs), but still experiencing optical issues with the Lumicon GEG. Its simply not made to handle large format CCD cameras such as the STL11k. Strange considering it was made for 35mm film. Pixels are more discriminating than film grains.

Anyway, finally got around to some quick imaging...

After selling the Astronomik LRGB 50mm unmounted filters more than a two months ago, I should finally have the Custom Scientific HaLRGBC 50mm unmounted filter set early next month. Looking forward to some colour imaging again and trying different combos such as (R)RGB, (Ha+R)RGB etc etc.

Thanks for looking. All comments welcome.
