Description

So this was the first time I attempted to shoot at native focal length.... EVER! For the longest time, I thought that collecting data at f/10 would be painstakingly slow and take forever. Boy was I wrong! Shooting at native focal length isn't so bad at all. I'm starting small with the edge 8" HD, but am planning to purchase the C14 Edge HD for a permanent setup in the future, and wanted to be sure that the skies and atmospheric seeing here on the east coast would support it at F11. 

This makes me very excited for the future :-)
