I also note his exposure times are not that long, hes getting very good value for time too!

Some of the exposures are not that long true but some are very long and from what I read in the image credits many of the shots were done at +10 to +20C

The seeing and perfect dark skies helps a lot but clearly his processing is down pat and he gets the most out of the equipment - very talented

Yes very similar scope to mine...hmmmm, I do need to get to darker skies and better seeing....

Mike
