Seeing was a bit shakey tonight. But at this resolution it just doesnt matter as very sharp images can still be got

Celestron powerseeker 114 F8 Newtonian SWEQ2 Mount single economy RA Drive QHY462C Camera

I miss hi res cant wait to try my bigger scopes real soon, One upgraded. One new. The grey Newtonian on the left is the powerseeker. My 10" Orion with cap held together with tape belies what i have done to it inside recently

Hey thanks Cozy. Getting back into astronomy is really helping. This pandemic is awful, hope everyone is coping out there

Cheers Andy not having a handset, having to push the EQ2 around for each mosaic pane isnt fun. But in a weird sort of way, going back to basics has been very fulfilling 

Hoping to get a EQ5 in a few weeks. The return of jupiter to us all in the summer is a milestone. Admittedly low to start with

Really lovely work with that little Newt Neil.  Your colour work is outstanding.   Makes me want to get myself a colour cam. ( Not ready to jump into LRGB work) In the meantime I will be motivated to put my dslr on the scope once in a while!

I look forward to seeing your work with the bigger scopes!  That ten inch quite a beast!

 

Cheers
