Thanks Marc, Andrew and Jeanette!
I've spent a lot of time collimating my scope (well actually a lot of time swearing and worrying that my scope would never be usable again) so was very happy with the result. I knew I'd captured some decent data when I saw the first sub downloaded to my laptop. I even tried to get my family to come out and look at the subs - reluctantly my wife finally relented!
Focusing is a breeze now with the remote focuser and the QHY8L is such a nice little camera to use - I'm extremely happy with what it can do. Having Startools has also helped my processing skills come along in leaps and bounds.
Marc, I have one of those giant picture frames that has spots for lots of different size photos on the wall at home and I know exactly which spot this image is going into. It might not be the pool room but it's close enough!!
Andrew, the detail is one of the things that I'm most happy with in this photo along with how I feel I've represented the light.
Jeanette, I glad you think my image is beautiful - you've given us so many wonderful images to look at on IIS it's about time that I posted something half-decent to repay you!!!
Cheers,
Mario
