First Light Gstar-EX

These are my first ever pictures of DSOs taken with my new Gstar-Ex that I received yesterday. They are the best that i could do between some patchy cloud and a sudden onslaught of massive dew post sundown on a humid night. I was wiping down the glass after every filter change!

M42: Gstar-EX 50frames R,G,B + Dark Frame, C9.25 and 0.5 Focal reducer, 40 frames stacked in registrax, Photoshop CS4, AstraImage filter LR deconvolution. Adjusted for Curves and colour.

Tuc 47: Gstar-EX 50frames R,G,B + Dark Frame, C9.25 and 0.5 Focal reducer, 20 frames stacked in registrax, Photoshop CS4, AstraImage filter LR deconvolution. Adjusted for Curves.

Still a lot to learn and I'm looking forward to having more time/ better weather to get some better pics.

Any comments or advice would be greatfully received.
