paul11 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Hi all I managed to get a few minutes on this before the clouds arrived. I took this with my home made 200mm 5.4 newt,i made the mistake of not checking the collimation before I started and it was out. This is an HDR from 5,15,30 and 45 sec images, it’s the full image taken with a DSLR and no filters, I’m still very much a beginner at this so all CC welcome,,,,Paul.

jnp Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Good effort, especially if collimation was out. It's encouraging to see some results from a DIY scope. I might even post some of mine. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
