First clear night in forever!

[irtuk]

First clear night in forever the other day, and I managed to get a good few hours on a new target, the Rosette Nebula. I'm really pleased with the result and I think it's a big step forward from my elephant trunk shot.

 

Changes - well,  I shot this with 3 minute subs not 10 and I have rebalanced the rig and dialled in what I think is my best polar alignment. PHD2 played ball all evening with only half a pixel or so of movement which is a massive improvement. I think the angle of IC1396 where I am makes it really hard on the  equipment, I will go back to it and check once I am done with some other stuff. I have bought pixinsight and started putting some time into learning that.
