Thanks Louie. Actually this image is a tad misleading. The original was a little above centre and I cropped it slightly. But I was happy Autostar found it coz I was running blind with all my fingers and toes crossed!

I'm thinking it would probably be a good idea to 'synch' on a nearby bright star before slewing to the object I want to photograph to increase the go-to accuracy. I'll certainly have to resort to some kind of tricks like that when photographing anything near the zenith.

But the bug has bitten... can't wait for some clear, dark skies!

btw Louie... did you get your scope's objective fixed up?
