Finally got some hours on this close in shot that I love. It's like a tsunami in space from this angle. Moon was up at 75% which interfered a bit and had some guiding problems which resulted in some odd stars that needed fixing but the end result I'm happy with. Hope to do better when I get my R.F.Royce primary for my DIY serurier truss 10” F5 scope I'm building.
