Excellent shots Pete 👍

I've combined two shots using the modded pst. The proms are a bit over exposed but I wanted to show the activity just over the horizon from the big new spot that is now appearing

The same area taken through an ED100 with a white light filter and then with the modded end of a pst attached. I used an imaging source mono camera

That’s brilliant Luke. Intrigued with that. Trevor

Thanks Neil. I always value your opinion. I feel like I’m getting somewhere now 👍

Always seem drawn to this area. taken a few nights back with a C9.25 and 178mono. Lucky enough to have some good seeing. Trevor

Thanks Neil. Certainly looking forward to the next lunation with a high moon. Lets all hope the weather plays ball again !! Trevor

Thanks Den . Appreciate that. Trevor

Thanks very much for the comment. Trevor

Thanks Nick. Appreciate the comment. Trevor

Thanks Mike. The first real chance to try out the C9.25. At least I know the scope can do it in the future and lesser quality is me or the seeing or both !!

Thanks Pete. If the conditions are right is does seem a capable bit of kit. Trevor

That’s a great image Mike. Lots of fine detail throughout 👍

Thanks Mike. I will give the reducer a go and see what happens. Appreciate the help. Trevor 👍

That’s a very good shot Martyn. You’ve beaten me to a mineral moon. Well done 👍

More time to process some images and hopefully get better results. All taken a few days back with a 180 Mak at Prime focus using a 178 mono

Lots of detail there Neil. Like Martyn, I have never tried a colour shot of the moon but it’s definitely one for the future 👍

Thanks for the comment Martyn. Imaging often doesn’t work out how I intend but it’s nice the few times it does 😁

Thanks very much Neil. It’s the first time I’ve had very good seeing with the C9.25 since I brought it. It does make all the difference 👍

Nice images Pete. The Gassendi one is full of detail. I’m still struggling with when to use a Barlow. The seeing seems to vary so much in a short time.

Taken a few nights back through a C9.25 with 178 mono camera. Taken at prime focus with no barlow used

Thanks Neil. Again, really appreciate the help and advice. Trevor

Thanks Martyn. I used an IR685 filter. It certainly improves the seeing. Trevor

Thanks Michael, I have loads of pictures of this area and always seem to go back to it.

Taken a few nights back during some good seeing. I used a 178mono at prime focus on a C9.25. I've over exposed a couple of bits but its more detail than I've ever achieved in this area so I'm happy. My complete thanks to Neil P for his advice and guidance during processing. I've used various programs in the past but had little understanding of what I was doing. He certainly has a wealth of knowledge and experience but anyone would be aware of that if they have looked closely at the images he submits. All I have to do is remember what I did this time during processing and that will be a challenge in itself !!!!!
