Description

First attempt at photographing a Globular Cluster.
Skywatcher Esprit 100, EQ6-4 Pro, Canon t3i DSLR, Guided
Forgot to turn the Camera back to manual, so it was in "Av" mode for all (flats, lights, darks)
* Still turned out OK.  Wondering if the camera switches to manual mode anyway.


23x240s / 1600 ISO / Av Mode - Lights (1 rejected due to clouds)
41xFlats / 1600 ISO / Av Mode
6x240s / 1600 ISO / Av Mode - Darks
Unable to get EKOS / Astroberry to take Bias (it just spins waiting to start an exposure)
