Description

9 x 600s L + 9 x 30s L in HDR composition. It was a hazy night and I am not entirely happy about the background. There seems to be some horizontal banding, maybe the power supply has a ripple on the voltage?

Tracking and guiding with the MesuMount 200 MKII is absolutely superior to that with the old 10Micron GM2000, which was loaded near its maximum of 45kg.
