Mars 18 April 2014... First light ASI120MM, RGB processing, RBG filters, etc....

[DJ N]

I had a few items arrive in the post over the last week for my C11.......

ASI120MM camera
Manual Filter Wheel
Moonlite focuser with the DC motor option.....

Last night was a clear night, but the seeing was pretty rubbish. Even so, it was a good opportunity to get a first light for all my gear.

This is my first time doing RGB, but given the seeing conditions (the stars were quite jittery) I am quite pleased with the result.

Thanks for looking,
