Clouds, clouds, clouds......that's it.:mad:
I haven't had the scope out in weeks....I'm desperate.:(

Only recently I ventured into the world of DSO imaging and have slowly built up a my kit which comprises the following.
Orion ED80 with a SW 0.85 corrector
HEQ5 Pro mount with EQDir controlled by EQ-Mod
Canon 1000d (unmodified at present) with a Astronomik CCD CLS Clip filter
SW ST80 Guide scope piggybacked on the ED80
SW Synguider
Dell Studio 15 Laptop
85ah Leisure Battery
Here is my first ever (and only one to date:)) DSO image
M81 & M82 by ashworthacca, on Flickr
Unguided, 22x120 sec lights/20x120 sec darks, processed in Nebulosity V2 and finished in photoshop using GradientXterminator and levels/curves.
I'll be updating this blog as things happen and try to detail my trials and tribulations as I gain more and more experience.
