Yesterday morning I had a chance to do a long imaging session with my Lunt 60DS scope with a Basler ace1300 mono camera. My first image is a 2-part mosaic in direct focus ( each part is a stack of best 400 from 1000 frames in Autostakkert ). Waveletting was in Registax 6, final touches in Photoshop ( levels, curves, colorizing ). 

Seeing was fair, so I could shoot an 24-part barlow mosaic too, using a 2,5x GSO barlow. Each AVI had 500 frames, stacked in Autostakkert.  I have used Microsoft ICE for composing it, it is very powerfull and user friendly. Final steps in Photoshop ( levels, curves, colorizing ).

Clear skies,

Brilliant work Janos.  A super image and a really great scope.  Lunt made a winner with the 60mm.
