Excellent shot Chris, looks like the area I was showing the school kids tonight.

Wish I could be there John. I was waiting for an important o/s call, so I had to stay home. At least i could get the new beast out and play. Not a bad sky tonight - and would have been pretty good without the moon.

Did the kids enjoy the experience?

Great looking image Chris, very crisp and nice detail as well.

[Omaroo (Chris Malikoff)]

Cheers Ric - thanks!

Very nice! 5x powermate on the small scope still delivers very sharp results.

Ah, first light? It seems to have the lenses in correctly then, LOL.

Thanks Mike

First light for me, and I'd say it does have all the bits in the right place! Lovely scope to use - I'm glad I relieved you of it Gary!
