Tarantula another 1st :)

Hi again. I have been bitten by the imaging bug a bit harder lately and it's an itch i just can't reach ... yet.
This is a first crack at this object and i guess you will see quite a few 1st's as i eagerly point my ED to the heavens.
From nearly reaching 1 min last week to just making 30secs last night, it seemed like a rollercoaster. I have learnt so much in the last 2 few weeks than the previous months put together . Nothing beats the sink or swim scenarios.
27 mins of 30sec subs plus flats and darks ( not of equal exp)
500D-SWED80 PRO- EQ3 unguided.
can't wait for the night when i can give this gem the dedication it deserves
