Yeah, the northern polar haze really stands out in this version. I have a couple more AVI file to get through yet. To answer your question Dave, I often use stacked barlows to increase image scale but this is actually eyepiece projection using a home-made adaptor. Since I use such a fast scope, collimation is always critical and always tightened up using stars before each imaging run.

Don't burn your pic's Asimov..you guys are doing some great stuff. My god, I used to try this stuff with film in the old days and have many 35mm pic's hidden in a box in the spare room. Remember, it wasn't that long that the level of stuff some guys in this forum are achieving digitally today was as good as the best of the best on film from professional observatories years ago.
