Glad you like it lads 
It's a great scope.
Michael, I took every image in RAW mode, now I really need to take some dark frames, that's next on the list. IS0 400 would definitly produce less noise, but then again, this is only an 80mm, so maybe ISO 800 is a compromise ? I used 1600, because my set up at the moment is unguided, so, I tried to capture as much as I could.
Actually Yeah - my dual technique - two crossed fingers and the odd prayer
Looking into getting a set up for autoguiding next :arrow:
Keith..

Did you take the images in RAW mode or JPEG?

Do you have anyway of guiding the scope?, it would make all the differance and you'd be able to get longer exposures.

Nice picture Keith - keep rubbing in those dark skies. I've yet to see anything like that from here.
