Astrofest NGC253

I managed to get 4.5 hr of luminance during Astrofest in between the power black-outs and a recalcitrant EQMOD fault. Didnt get as much colour data as I wanted with the QHY8 but there you go. Thought the power faults had blown the qhy8 but it appeared that it was only able to corrupt the drivers during a download - thanks for the tip Paul (1Ponders) as it saved my sanity
10"SCT with f6.3FR and QSI and QHY8 cameras 10 min integrations.
Love the detail the QSI583 can get.
Comments welcome.
