Hi all, 
after over one year of reading and learning about all the small details and technical stuff, adjusting, waiting for clear and dark skies, and testing - I finally got everything together yesterday night. A great feeling! The 190MN is not very forgiving as a beginners scope though, but I can now see that it will reward you when everything works. Still trying to get collimation good, but I think the stars are fairly ok. I am still chuffed by the amount of info I got from low integration time. 
I need two things; 
1) A proper monitor  - impossible to get correct colours on my laptop. How do the colours look? 
2) Backyard EOS so I can automate a little bit. 
Scope: Skywatcher 190MN
Mount: NEQ 6 Pro
Camera: Eos 7d unmodded
3x120 secs ISO 1600
2x140 secs ISO 1600
No darks
No flats
Hope you like it!

Excellent start dude

Thx gingergeek! Yes I am pleased with it, although short integration time. The thing I am wondering about now is the colour.....shouldn´t M27´s ionized oxygen be glowing more green? Is it my DSLR that records more blue than green from Oxygen 111, 5007 Angstroms, or is it my processing. Anyone?? ( And once again.... it might be my screen as well..)
