Sculptor Galaxy imaged with ST-1001E and C14

Very nice Ron. That 1001E seems very sensitive.

Wish I could get this one, but I'm too far north...

CCDSoft autoguiding question

Posted By Jeff Hapeman

Make sure you have the very latest release from Bisque. You can download it from their site. I sort of recall this happening with the release version of the software. Also, the guide star really needs to be of the right brightness level...make sure that the count is at least 500 when imaged through the blue filter, and put in a delay between the colors to give it time to refind the star and start smoothly guiding again.

Very nice, Ron. That looks like a pretty nice C-14 you have there.

Moon Venus Mars

Thanks for sharing...I got up to see this sight this morning and it had clouded up. Very disappointing, but now I can experience it vicariously.

Thanks,

Saturn, my first of the New Year

Really nice. The background seems really dark...maybe you clipped the dark end of the histogram? If so, maybe you can tweak it and make the crepe ring visible?

Overall, though, very nicely done!
