SMC and LMC with 6 inch Sn

Hi
Weather cleared on dusk and high cloud to the west didnt advance, so I did both the LMC and SMC.
First, the SMC, 9x10 mins ISO 400. IDAS LPS filter and Baader MPCC coma corrector. Modded 350D, Meade Cometracker 6 inch F3.6 SN. It has plate glass optics, and sadly no AR coatings whatsoever on corrector plate, so it doesnt handle bright stars well like the Pliades but thankfully no probs here.

LMC. 6x10 mins. Same equipment used.
