In my haste to get something captured during a gap in the clouds I missed focus..

So if the opportunity presents itself later in the season I will have to re-visit.
I have recently taken the step to remove my filter wheel with all the spacing and adapters/tiltplate etc that go along with that accommodate an asi294mm.

I have gone back to OSC Canon DSLR using a simple one piece Canon takahashi t-ring . The simpler the connection between the camera and the focuser the better with this scope it seems. Even though there is still some tilt in the system, it is consistently a better setup producing a better field than I am getting with the asi/filterwheel/tilt plate setup , which is interesting seeing as my Canon is an APS-C size sensor as opposed to the micro4/3rd asi294 sensor.

I will have to steel myself to better tune the afore mentioned setup but for now i just want to enjoy acquiring and processing some data when the opportunity presents itself with my canon60Da.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
