This object is on my hit list for next new moon. I want to do 3x10mins in each colour. Let's see how the weather treats us.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks Monte... I look forwards to seeing your closeup with the Tak and SBIG..will be a stunner!

Thanks Steve for the comment.., yeah the focal length is short enough not to show it but I have lost 5 frames due to big wind gusts.

Here comes a plug...
Many thanks to everyone in IIS community over the last year for all there help and comments. My imaging and processing have come a long way since I have joined and I hope I have helped others along the way!!
If I didn`t join up I would be nowwhere near where I am now in my processing and iamging, and I am still learning and listening....Its a long road but I am enjoying the journey!!!...
cheers
