Description

Time for a revisit.

Here my last attempt from 03/2018 ...



At least I improved on integration time :-)

A astro fellow did the collimation for my 10" Meade SCT which was on the sidelines for quite a pretty while now and I thought I could kick off this years's galaxy season.

But in the end I was aiming at Messier 1 and collected some Ha photons.

The image ended up with some guiding-hickup-spikes (for whatever reason) on the brighter stars but is still presentable I think :-)

Thanks for watching!
