I have been having massive amounts of trouble Collimating my scope and Grahame came over to give me a hand. We were more concerned with Star testing than anything so after achieving what we thought was a reasonable result, I turned to scope on NGC 253 (nice easy target nearer zenith!) This is the result
Problems are that the polar alignment was quick and very dirty! I was also only using my Canon D1000 DSLR not my QHY10. anyway this was only
3 X 300 seconds with Darks applied no flats. Nowhere near enough to get a great picture but enough to give me great hope for future pics when done right!
all the best
