Hello folks,
It's been a Loooooong time but i think i'm close to getting back into it finally.
I upgraded to a G11 and consequently weather and work have conspired to prevent me from enjoying my hobbie for a while.
I've finally managed to have a descent play with the new equipment and I think I had a descent run this weekend enabling me to get a better image of NGC 6302 than I have in the past.
I include the best I could do a while back (at F/6.3 using a CG5) and this first light using the G11 at F/10 - uncropped and cropped a bit.
Shots are on C9.25 on G11 autoguided with WO ZS80mm, QHY5 camera (thanks Theo) PHD, EOS 20Da (thanks Canon and Striker) ISO 400
10 min shots 11 out of 14 (i could have used them all but this is just my first run at processing the data from the weekend so a quick job)
hope you like
I think i'm coming along slowly...it's been a long time since i felt good and not just frustrated with the hobby!
cheers
frank
