M42 with L plates.

Just to prove that I didn't waste last nights clear dark sky.
I took the opportunity to finally learn how to get a half decent allignment on the Cube and then slid the Gstar-Ex into the Ioptron 80mm Refractor.
The image ain't much, I took no darks and I need to seriously learn how to master the finer controls on the camera.
But the FOV is excellent, just right for big bright objects and a 2x barlow should do the trick for the smaller ones.
