+Graham Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Despite the horrendous seeing conditions tonight I just had to try out the new additions to my kit. An Atik 414 EX and a Starlight Express motorised filter wheel with a built in off axis guider. Went for the familiar target of NGC 6888 as it was high up in the sky where there was slightly less murk. Atik 414 EX HA filter 15 subs at 600 seconds Captured and stacked in Maxim Slightest of brush ups in PS 6. Click on the image for full res.

+Graham Posted October 11, 2015 Author Share Posted October 11, 2015 Thanks Rob. I must admit it has come out a lot better than I thought it would considering the awful conditions up there last night. I am very impressed with the 414. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan the Plumber Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 very good at least it was clear for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Graham Posted October 11, 2015 Author Share Posted October 11, 2015 Thanks folks. Allan I would not say it was clear, you could only just make out Vega through the murk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan the Plumber Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) Thanks folks. Allan I would not say it was clear, you could only just make out Vega through the murk. Better than here in North Yorkshire couldn't see the stars because of the cloud and murk Edited October 11, 2015 by Allan the Plumber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
