Hi guys,
after being beaten by the dew lastnight i decided i wasn't going to be beaten tonight and set up to image through the 6" instead of the ED80.
the only problem i had with this was that i don't have the spacer yet for my MPCC so LOTS of coma but theres not much i can do about that for now.
not only first light for the QHY8 but also my first time autoguiding, so this is really my first serious go at it and i'm pretty happy so far.
i wasn't really happy with the colour version i processed so i also processed the red channel separately as a RHa monochrome image and i'm much happier with that, i think this shows more detail but thats probably down to my lack of processing skills.
9x10 minute subs
6" newt + UHC-S filter, no mpcc.
i didn't feel like mucking about with compressed versions so....
