  1. Hi Happy-Kat, I wrote it down as M106however not 100% Sure! am really quite happy as I have a street light next to the garden an the moon was coming up so far from great conditions! they are M82, M81 and suspected M106 (danger of a go-to... I just had it slew to something to make sure it was centering properly!)
  2. Some of my early images taken with a Nexstar 8SE Alt/AZ with Celestron Motor Focus (ASCOM), Celestron Starsense, Celestron F 6.3 Reducer/corrector, an Altair 385C (at 115mm from the reducer via a diagonal) over the last week, whilst checking everything was tracking / aligning / focussing and working out how to use Sharpcap properly (HIstogram, tracking and stacking etc). This is a new telescope for me after upgrading from the 4SE. Images are noisy anf far from flawless (Lots of short subs and max exposure just ot get something on the sensor!). Have just watched this you-tube vid so next clear night will be attempting to 'do it properly'. Still, am happy its all working together with not a lot of things misbehaving! hopefully its just a case of learning and refining now. Images exported from FITS to jpeg and spruced up on iPad using built in photo editor so less than flawless and are really just test and 'what does this button do' type images!
