Lynx 290mm F/2.5 Astrograph with Astro 6D

Description

This is the Lynx Astrograph as it is now. This telescope was used for the picture of the Horsehead nebula (and more to come!). http://www.astrobin.com/full/263466/0/

It was designed by Rik ter Horst, and he also made the optics. The focuser is an Integra 85 from Andras Dan (Gemini Telescope Design).

The camera still has to be squared to the optical path, but it looks reasonably well at the moment.
