Description

First time observing and capturing Messier 57, the Ring Nebula (in Lyra).

Taken from my Bortle 7/8 backyard.

Lights, Darks, Flats & Bias stacked in DSS and edited in Photoshop 2020.

Although the Skymax 102 isn't made for Astrophotography (Planetary scope), I still managed to get a decent picture.

Tracking isn't quite as easy on a Star Adventurer Pro, due to the long Focal Length (1300mm, and 2080mm FF equivalent), and the fact that there's no DEC-guiding.
