Hi Ezy,

Your enthusiasm to get images done is commendable. However, if there is one thing I have learned about Astro Imaging is that patience is a key ingredient. The extra effort and time taken to do a set of darks (and to do every other little thing, like polar alignment, focus ,framing, flats, bias etc etc) can be the difference between an Ok image and a great one.

You'll get there!

Cheers
