Folks - Celbridge is blessed with a clear sky at the moment.

I am running a live webcast on www.astroshack.net if you fancy taking a look. Current target is M42 (again).

Cheers

Thanks Dave - a bit blowy out here so the images are not coming in too fast. But you'll see the composite improve over time. I've adjusted contrast so the nebula stands out.

M42 will be dipping below the shed shortly so I'll have to change subject... Moon, Saturn or Jupiter. Hmmm...

Cheers

Thats pretty cool Dave! Its a little to the left, but its definitely M42 alright!

Bythe way, can I sugest an increase in font size? If you like small font, can you go for a size 10 at least? Text is almost tiny on my 15" flatscreen at 768 X 1024 - I have to squint a little!!

Don't hate me for it! :P

Thanks Seanie - my wish is your command - try it now! Ahh - the wonder of the internet...

Its a little to the left because I have no DEC motor - it drifts over time so I have to start bottom left if you know what I mean... This will all change in two weeks when the AP1200GTO arrives...

Cheers
