Description

Wanted to be able to image in the winter, without an observatory. Set myself up just inside my South-facing garage. Was able to polar align using an interesting combination of PHD2 drift align for Az adjustments, then using Guiding Assistant data for Alt (because Az was accurate already). It worked! No polar sky, no East or West sky. Only South. And it worked. Good to know! Added previous data ( 0.7 hrs - L-eNhance) from an Edge HD 800 image from last year for more details.

Pushed the processing a bit in order to get some of that external dust for the first time. Considering a Bortle 8 sky with snow on the ground... it's good to see that's even possible.
