oldfruit Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Managed to finally get out for a bit of Astronomy last night. Seems to have been cloudy and raining for ages. Despite the seeing being poor it was still an enjoyable session and the GRS was putting on a good show. Helios 8 inch newt and spc900, 1000 frames (approx) from 1800 using sharpcap and stacked in registax 6. I also now realise that stupid me put last years date. Edited January 5, 2013 by Craig Fixed the date :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catman161 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Wow for poor seeing you've got some great belt detail there mark-nice one! You inspire me to get on with using my SPC900 once I have my dovetail to mount the 200P to the NEQ6 pro-if I get even half as good images as yours ill be chuffed. Can I ask, do you use a bhatinov mask to focus or do it by eye? Edited January 4, 2013 by catman161 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
