Well after 3 months I finally managed to get back out with the scope. Its a poor effort but here is my 1st NGC 2070 taken with the Starshoot Pro. Lots of equipment problems meant I ended up with poor alignment and tracking so the stars are eggy but its an image after all.

lovely wide field! colour and detail looks good, Isnt it a shame when technical difficulties rear their heads Mind you considering your troubles, the eggy stars are fairly minimal really... could be fixed in photoshop if you felt that way inclined...
I like it as is.. And as you said, in spite of everything else, you got a nice image... thats what matters!
Thanks guys. I tend to leave the colour pretty much as it comes out (and I look at other peoples work to make sure its reasonable). Good to be getting back into the fray
That's a great shot Dan. Love the colors and the details you got!
