Alec shared his attempt on NGC7000, which was cut short due to clouds, managing just 10 minutes of data. The image is stunning considering just how little data was captured!

TS71 QSI RGB 24 x 30 secs each filter.
 

Did this small test with the focuser I've just added and in process a new plugin on affinity photo.

Another one from my holiday in Cornwall. I managed to get the first view of the Milky Way just as the crescent moon was setting. Yes, that's the Moon, not the Sun hitting the horizon. Taken from Widemouth Beach, Cornwall with my Star Adventurer mount and modded Canon 450d🔭😉

If the weather is good then we'll have the chance to observe/image, otherwise we'll meet up for a social. 🙂

Couldn't resist the opportunity to grab some snaps from my holiday let in Cornwall - fantastic clear skies last night - think I'll be moving the shed doen here 

Hi All,
 
Not posted anything for some time. Light nights, holidays, QHY8L broken, pondering what changes need to be made for the new season of astrophotography......etc.
 
So my QHY8L died and although I stripped it down, there was nothing obviously wrong - I suspected the dodgey DIN connector, but it wasn't that. So off it went, via Bern at Modern Astronomy to China to be repaired. It's been fixed I understand and should be back soon.
 
I was hoping to have more time/success with my twin scope set up, so I've been making some improvements. I've added a 4 port USB 3 hub and cable to replace 4 separate USB 2 cables. The theory being USB 3 cables should be better quality. First impressions look good, but time will tell.
 
Also purchased a new camera, a second hand Atik 383L+ as this will match the sensor in the Moravian G2-8200, which the QHY8L didn't when I used that. That should simplify the processing of the images and hopefully give a better result. To this I've added a ZWO mini EFW.
 
The set up will be:
 
Moravian -  LRGB filters
Atik - L, Ha, Hb Oiii, Sii filters
 
This should allow me to maximise my imaging time.
 
Might swap the filters around a bit, might make sense to split up the RGB to allow LRGB imaging only to be set up.
 
Here's the new set up:

 
Looking forward to some clear skies.

I've imaged the part of the Veil, North America and Sadr regions previously, but this time I'd wanted to catch them widefield, all in the same frame.

Bit of an odd ball this one.
Came across this whilst searching for a target to do at Kelling.
I decided to do it due to the interesting star formations around it.
