Well it's been a while coming but I finally managed to get my imaging setup ready for use! 8" Skywatcher Black Diamond Newt, EQ6 and Canon 550D.
I roughly (too roughly) polar aligned and pointed at M8 to see what I could see, quite a lot it turns out! The results actually surprised me, I'm quite happy with this from a fairly brief trial run with no flats and only 20 sec subs.

My focus still needs work and I can definitely see the benefit of a coma corrector.
Antares (This was my first 'first light' to set the focus and framing).

Any criticism, tips and advice all welcome
