      Its a party piece that never fails to amaze once you have mastered it you dont even need the Marigolds.

  4. Fingers crossed for some clear sky over the festive break!

  5. Back to the 80ED for a bit of consistency in Orion

  6. More testing to eliminate unfocused/stray light

  7. Seeing what the 130pds can do with NGC7023, always a tricky one for me.

  8. Clear all day, put my telescope out, now 100% cloud. Typical!

      mine was 2x900, my fault for not keeping an eye on the images coming back. It probably wont be the last time I do it!

  19. Hmmm... Altair have put their 80/480 up by £100. So its gone from "perhaps", to "not worth it" IMO.
