M57 Rough 'n' ready first light

[beamish]

I was sorting out a bolt for the pier and mount yesterday evening and spotted the skies clearing so...........

It is R'n' R so not expecting owt but boy did I come in the house with a smile on my face ???

Anyway 100s at ISO 800 at prime on the 8" Cape, better alignment and guiding next !!!! As for having a pier- well I can really see the benefits for the future .
