Rosette in Ha and first time guiding

Yesterday was cloudy, but i was in rush to test the adapters i received, and i only tested the adapter for Canon lens connection [with ZWO filter wheel], but i failed, because i thought it should be 55mm, but i found out that it must be 44mm actually, so i ended up to remove the filter wheel and place the filter on the sensor window, but vignetting is there anyway i think [or maybe that what i think].

The sky condition wasn't good, because we all know the enemy number 1 for all astrophotographers in the world, but i didn't stop, the sky was really clear if the enemy is moving away, and with the moon nearly full, and under Bortle 8/9 sky, what can you expect after all?

The only good thing from last night is that finally i managed to use guiding, so almost officially that was the first night i used guiding with, but i have to build my next plans or projects on that now, so we will see what will be next targets results.

Hello Tareq,


Nice capture.
It will progress well as you add to it.
I am using a similar setup to you...Nikon 300mm F4 lens, asi1600 ccd and NEQ6pro mount so I will follow with interest your results.


Ross.

Hello Ross,


Thank you very much!


I am also following you as i want to see more results from lenses, many are using telescopes with better nicer images i think, but with my lens i feel like the stars are never round or good shape, and i see so so much stars with my lenses than telescopes, so i feel like the lens is adding more distracting stars and killing the roundness of stars, so want to see others how they do it.
