Description

I'm starting to think imaging double stars is surprisingly one of the most difficult of AP pursuits. For starters stars are a murderous test of optics. Secondly imaging closely paired points of light requires an almost planetary imaging approach. Thirdly it really requires some focal length and the images to be oversampled with long enough exposures that tests the mount, but too short for guiding to be of much good.  Lastly its pretty much impossible to capture the experience of seeing it live.

I guess I'm always up for a challenge!
