Description

This is one of the first astrophotos that I did (at least in this go around taking it seriously... I fooled around with a DSLR twenty years ago or so).

At this point I had most of the equipment I was putting together -- I was missing a few things like a focuser and a primary camera (my current ASI2600MM Pro arrived much, much later, and I think my William Optics Fluorostar 91 hadn't shown up yet, pretty sure I used a Tele Vue TV-76 for this).  I was also working out the bugs in the ASIAir (although TBH I ultimately decided it's just kind of useless for planetary since it really doesn't support full ADC video.  But it worked for this).

But anyway, without anything else to do, I decided I'd just use my guide camera.  And here it is.  Not bad for the little bugger, really.
