Description

This image is in collaboration with David Rivas Romero - a huge thanks to him! The CCD and guider were mine but the C8, reducer, and fork-mount were all his and all in great condition due to his impecable upkeep of his equipment. Collimation of his C8 and his polar alignment were excellent. My first time doing astrophotography with a mount that does not have Go-To capabilities, David, you really know your sky! I must confess I was a little lost since all the constellations were upside down..... (Southern Hemisphere and I live in the Northern Hemisphere). We had to battle a humid night with below average transparency but we made the most out of it. Muchas gracias David!
