Vicki Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I had the chance for another go with the 269c. It was a bitterly cold evening in January, which threw up lots of gremlins, so I only managed a couple of hours on this, but pleased nonetheless. There was a first quarter moon nearby too. I cooled to -5 degrees, set exposure at 180s and got on my way. I have started to pull some of the finer dust so, with more exposure, I think this has great potential.

If I can grab at least another 2 hours, I'll be happy. Weather not being kind at all here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
