Popular Post philjay Posted March 16, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) Felt a bit crook last night but I had to try and make use of the only clear night we have had for ages. So I set the Eddy 80 up with the Atik 314 in the obs centered on M35. Got PHD looking almost flatlining. Set the Atik at 4 minute subs then went in and watched telly for 2 hours. Should have done 2 minute subs (Lesson 1 - just cos PHD is almost flat lining doesn't necessarily mean the guiding is n0b on, Lesson 2 - Double check with Atik FWHM on focus instead of relying on the Bhart Simpson mask for focus). Still it was an image and one of my favourite objects so I'm a reasonably happy bunny Edited March 16, 2017 by philjay +Graham, Tweedledee, Smithysteve and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 That is the nicest and most colourful image I've ever seen of those two. M35 has the young blue stars and 2158 the old red ones. philjay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithysteve Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Great image, it looks fab, and you make it sound easy peezy, which I am sure it ain't. Nice one! ? philjay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
