Another couple of pics from last new moon week-end at Ilford. I was really looking forward to use the C11 and I had already made my list of targets.
During setup and unpacking I realised I had forgot the extra counterweight for the big scope.... 250km later
So in an outburst of rage
I barlowed the ED80 and went for it
Flexure is the name of the game ...
Not top shots but I spent so much time trying to process them I thought I'd post them anyway. Next month I won't forget my counterweights
M83 is 15x600s - ED80 - 2xbarlow
NGC4755 is 10x180s - ED80 - 2Xbarlow
