Omega Centaurus without the beer!

Evening everyone!!

I'm very excited because I think I've managed to crack the "Drift Aligning" code this evening. Just when I was about to throw in the towel, I thought I'd give it one more try. And much to my surprise I started understanding what I was doing.

Once I was confident with my alignment, I turned my attention to Omega Centaurus to see how much this new alignment was working compared to my Friday night drinks session a week ago. I'm very happy with the result although I think I have a fair amount of coma as the stars seem to elongate as I move away from the centre.

I've stacked 19 x 30s subs in DSS, ICNR as well as high ISO NR, and the images were taken at ISO800 using a Pentax Km.

Anyway, once again I would appreciate any thoughts/comments on what I have produced. I've learnt so much from what I have posted before - I really do appreciate your comments!

Cheers,
Mario
