Description

The Northern Trifid is a hard nut to crack especially when you are still fumbling with your scope. The coma corrector is working pretty well with a 42mm extension to the image sensor, however stars are elongated in the same direction. Also, I do not yet have any 2" filter in that this image is a wash out of visual and infrared while the half moon was still up. The dark frames were not entirely dark. Anyway getting somewhere with the good old Newton.
