Another try at 253, better seeing, very steady air.

Set one shown here of a two set mosaic, rough prelim processing.

Thanks again ratbags, you know who you are

Ok, I'm pretty happy with this rough 1st stitch and process.

I'm sure one of the pros could get more from this data.

details:
GSO 12" F5 Newt @ FL 1524mm
DSI II Mono with peltier cooling to 10C. Ambient 16C
Homemade/ Bartelised GEM with homemade RA/DEC worm gears.
No PEC turned on.

Turn the lights out and stand 10ft from your monitor
