Description

First Light and first attempt at AP with my ES102ED and Celestron VX on my Sony Nex-5. 13x30" at ISO 800. Lost a lot of pictures due to focusing, and poor guiding. Learned a lot of things: 1. Don't walk on a deck if you setup a telescope there (unnecessary vibration), 2. Take flats before disassembling your train, 3. PP is way harder than it looks, 4. alignment is key, so setup early, 5. persistence is key to this hobby, that and clear skies. Clear skies! -DemisM
