M42-first light with my upgraded setup

I was waiting for clear sky for weeks and was lucky yesterday I could not miss opportunity to test all that was upgraded in last two months.

The first picture shows 36 minutes of M42 taken through my new VC200L and a QHY8, autoguided with a QHY5 and a new guiding scope(Pro-Optic 90mm MAK lens with FL 5.6)

9x4mins light frames + 3 flats

It all was stacked in DSS, levels and curves done in PS CS2 and finally it was slightly processed in Noiseware(Community edition)


On the second image you can see my both new scopes resting after a long night :-)

Hope you will enjoy it

cheers,

Mike
