M3 first bash

Ok so t's not brlliant but in fairness it is only my second effort so ok.

Still issues with focus. The homemade bahtinov mask didn't work very well at all sadly.

Anyway, I know for sure I am not doing it right yet but I am having a lot of fun playing around. At some point I will ask for some advice and maybe my results will improve, haha.

Also added my solar effort from this mornin. Focus again a problem.

Thanks for sharing, looks very promising, should look spectacular when focus sorted. What camera and scope are you using?

ZWO ASI224mc camera slapped onto an 80mm F7.5 frac. |Looking at getting a small 120mm F4.3 newt though, should improve results further

Should be a really nice scope for EAA.
