I managed to get a few hours on the Leo triplet last night - although not as much as I hoped as the cloud came in earlier than planned. An hour each of RGB and about 1.5 hours of luminance. Taken with a GSO RC8 reduced to F6 with and ASI1600MM. The reducer seems to highlight the collimation errors - I'm sure there is a good reason for this. I am planning on collimating soon, when the tools I have ordered arrive from China. The slightly bloated stars are probably down to some very high cloud on some of the subs. A threw out about 30%, but I did not want to loose too much data.

Constructive advice and criticism welcome as always.
