After last nights guiding problems I decided to put the Helios 127mm Frac back on the pier.


 


For a change I decided to have a go at M 51.


Mr Blobby wasn't helping much but heres the result.


 


Just managed 10 x 5 min subs before the cloud rolled in.


21 Flats


Stacked in DSS


quick process in PS 6.

Hi Eddy


I have no idea where all the snow is coming from.


I have a feeling there was a lot more cloud up there than what it looked.


Yes the cooler was on.


Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong would be apprecated.

I'd say it looks a lot like high thin cloud. Good image though :)

 

Thanks Mike I hope you are right.

I have been working on it today and separated the power cable out of the harness to see if that will help.

Need to get some cable screening sleeve from somewere.
