More Early Light with the 305 Honders

Seeing very soft during this exposure set. Overall sharpness can be much improved.

Superb John. You can't tell the seeing was soft at all.

Thanks guys. The reason I believe this can be better is that I've seen a number of shots on this object that are just exploding with finer detail. This scope really needs to be on a mountain top with sub arcsecond seeing and finer pixels.

Fantastic Image John. Very Smooth and sharp which is a difficult balance to achieve. Looks like you will be having a lot of fun with the scope.

Thanks Ross! Yes, it should. Seeing here was poor during this set. I want to switch to a smaller pixel camera too, for those nights of good seeing.
