Orion and Running Man 15th Dec

Hi All,

Finally a clear night and I got the G-11 setup with the Borg 100ED. The view of the moon was just breathtaking, did not notice any color at all. Spent several hours on visual polar alignment. I found the 3 star triangle close to the SCP and roughly aligned on the SCP visually. Tracking visually seemed ok so I tried taking some shots. But I found during imaging i got trails on 30sec shots so that limited me to 15sec shots. I will have to work on drift alignment.

Here is a 23x15se ISO1600 taken with the 400D.

Regards
Fahim
