Hi All,

Here is second light for my new vixen Fl102. To say that I am happy with it is an understatement. I can see why a lot of people made a song and dance about these scopes.

Anyway: around 30x 10 minute subs flats and darks applied. Moon was around a quarter illuminated.

A big thanks to Louie and his tutorials, I had really had trouble with the background star colour and he made a video that was exactly what I needed go get the colour I wanted.

Thanks for looking
Brett

Great shot Berty! Certainly plenty of colour in the galaxy

So is that a flourite doublet then?

It is a flourite doublet. It is F9 and 918 focal length.

Thanks Marcus.

That's a great shot Bert. A fluorite doublet is a lot of fun. Nice tight stars.

That's a great image Brett.

I love the FOV and the way it's just hanging there in space.
