Another M57

[oceanheadted]

All here's my first attempt at deep sky imaging - M57. Just about everything went wrong while I was taking this, including kicking the tripod (forgot to polar realign) and running out of battery on the Camera. I didn't think SWMBO would appreciate being woken up while I scrabbled around in the drawer for the spare so didn't get the chance to do any darks.

Two 30 second exposures on a C80ED and Canon 300D. Vixen GP Mount. Considering my incompetence I'm fairly pleased with it

Looking good for just a minutes exposure.

Sounds like you had nightmare.

I have kicked the tripod before after spending ages aligning, not funny!
