Description

My first crack at M57 this year and my first ever attempt at autoguiding. Happily, after a cloudy day with strong winds the sky cleared late in the evening and I was able to get an hour of exposure time before the Moon rose. Very happy with the results, my typical RMS over the hour was in the region of 0.5”. ZWO off-axis guider with ZWO ASI 120 mini.
