Omega quick and dirty

At last a brief cloud free night! ....where I discovered some seriously large arachnids had posted squatters rights inside my dome, plus various bits had drifted out of alignment due several months of neglect.

Just 5 minutes RGB for this one. Nothing special, but fun to crank up the gear again....

Hi~

What scope did you use?
I've got one as well taken in Dubbo last Saturday.

Very nice Peter, very clear and detailed.

I also took the opportunity of a clear night last night, let's hope there are more to come.

Cheers

Wow - total 5 mins?! You're just showing off now! If that's a quick & dirty, I'd sure like to see a slow and clean effort! I'm being slow and deliberate with my project but the results still look dirty

Cheers, Marcus
