After three months of abstinence, my intention on wednesday was actually just to set up the mount and do the PA and then wait for today to finally take pictures again.
But the sky remained clear and clear and clear and I had no choice but to saddle up the Baby Newton and get started.😊
Of course, not everything was perfect then. The distance was a bit too small, because I had already adjusted to my big Newton and its CC. Also the seeing was quite bad.
Nevertheless (or exactly because of that) I was very impatient and wanted to test some movements, so I managed to image three objects in about 5 hours.
One of it was the wonderful OC M35 and his little fellow NGC 2158🤩
I hope you like it!
