First light with ED 80!
First light with ED80!
(This is the Bauer clone from Astro Opticals..picked it up last Saturday)
The targets were NGC 3324 and NGC 3293 ("rubies and diamond cluster") with the extended nebulosity of the eta carina nebula showing in the upper left corner of the frame
My last attempts at these objects was ruined by my deadly enemy the palm tree, so I had another go on Sunday- despite the near full moon.
