Rosette AP 130 first light

Here's the first light image from a new-to-me AP 130EDF GT. Ha only so far from my backyard. With the AP reducer it has an efl of 615mm and is pretty fast at f/4.7. With the flattener about 860mm, so should be a versatile imaging scope.

I was guiding with the 10 x 60 finder.
