hello members finally had the nerve to do a collimation on my c11 as it was severely out!
when i stacked them i noticed that i had eggy stars in both bottom corners and i realised that i had forgotten to tighten the self centering collar on the hutech adapter so i hope that that is the reason
anyhow it is great to have the big one atop my mount once more

Looking good there Pat. I notice that the black Bok globules are not sharp.
If you look at my Lagoon Neb. post 17 posts back down this page,
you'll see what I mean.

could be right there raymo, though your picture is very small, i wonder if my focus was a bit soft or my collimation is still out a trifle?
