Ngc 1232

Hi. a target selected because it was between gum trees and away from the light of the city. About an hour of 300sec at 400iso cooled 60da, Vixen Newt 8" at f4. I did a 150 auto calibration run on the PMX before to try and solve my star issues. I'm down to collimation or orthogonality of the camera, but I'm such a chicken I don't want to mess with the scope just in case I make it worse. As my pics are for here and my friends only, I reckon I can live with what I've got on this newt.
Soundtrack- Whiskeytown-Strangers Almanac
Beverage- G&t with lime, then a nice chardy, in a goon bag!!
Thanks for bearing with me
