Description

Cigar galaxy as seen at 1422 focal length, from a Celestron EDGE HD 8, in Patras, Greece. After 6 months of head scratching, from backfocus, collimation, guidescope or OAG, proper backfocus of guide camera, autofocus issues, I solved the issues one by one and at last got a descent image. Imaging night ended at 04.00 o'clock in the morning of the 24th of April. Very excited from the results considering the light pollution area  I shoot from.
