  1. Hi PhotoGav, I've been looking at the WO 71 Star and was wondering how you manage to attach the QSI683WSG?

    Was it mounted on to the M48 thread or did you use the 2" nosepiece / draw-tube on the scope?

     

    Good luck with the transit!!!

      Hi Zak, sorry, only just seen this message - you should direct message me for a swift reply! I attached the QSI to the M48 thread of the WO Star 71 via a slim adapter of some sort. I can't remember the exact details as it's been a while since I've used that scope, but I certainly didn't use a 2" nose piece. Good luck, Gav.

    2017 New Years Session

    The clouds left way to crisp cold but clear skies from December 29th till Jan 3rd, allowing for a few chances to snap some pic during my Christmas break.

    NGC2237 RGB small

    From the album: 2015 January

    First attempt at narrowband, 10 minute subs in Ha O3 S2 3nm Astrodon filters. Clouds rolled in during the night, limiting esposures to: Ha 4x10 (Red) O3 3x10 (Blue) S2 2x10 (Green)

    NGC6960 LRGB x300s

    From the album: 2014 - May

    A pleasing result given the limited exposure and subs. More subs and 10 min exposures would start to do it justice...

  10. From the album: 2014 - May

    So much better than my previous attempt, and yet still so much more to do! Only 1 sub per channel due to the limited time the Triffid is visible from my latitude.

    A wide view of the southern skies with many of the most notable objects, including Swan (M17), Eagle (M16) and Triffid (M20)

    My very first attempt as far as I remember shooting this galaxy, known as the Black Eye Galaxy due to its dust lane.
  13. From the album: 2014 - May

    Again only 1 frame per RGB channel, but as I also shot the Luminance with the same duration Maxim was able to use its data too. As with M16, more data needed!
