no no no no, takes more than that to offend me for starters, and your post wasn't even remotely offensive. It's all good advice and I appreciate it.

Reticule will happen in the next 5 weeks. From there I'm going to work on polar alignment etc. As you said, practice and things will be good. I'm going to be getting an electronic inclinometer as well. Don't worry, it'll happen.

I guess I was hoping I could still do half decent shots in the interim. I can't wait for M42 to come around again, cos I'm pretty sure I'll be able to better my first efforts (3 x 30 second shots stacked in DSS). I'm sure 40 or 50 10 second shots will be a lot better! And this time around, darks and flats as well. Go me.
