That's a nice pair of refractors, I loved having those 2 side by side

Well that's it with deep sky pratting about. After the nth time (where n=very large number) I've set up only to summon up the grey wispy stuff. Until I get the obsy built it is quicky planetary and lunar for me unless there is a rock solid, god given promise of a clear night. So it's off shopping again - DMK, filters, filter wheel, barlows and imagematey thingies. Colimation and more collimation. Cue endless wobbly skies.

He he I can only learn by doing, I don't think I've done any shooting off, not on SGL anyway!

New imagers often worry about posting their first deep sky pictures but they shouldn't, we all had to start at some time. I thought it would be interesting to record our first fumbling efforts. So lets see what you did 1st time out, and no cheating with an image taken 6 months after starting!! Here's my offering, 2 images taken one after the other on 1st March 2006 M13 - 8x30secs and M51 8 x40 secs. Both with an NS8, meade 3.3 reducer and an Atik 2HS modded webcam.
