Dragons Egg NGC6164_
This is night two (and that's it for well over a week) this came about by recollimating the mirrors on the mount. In short you have to line up the mirrors by following steps and "eyes" to see just where things are each adjustment is not on one screw but three bottom or main mirror and the secondary or top mirror. It better than the first shot but still could be better.
I have to remove the clips that hold the mirror and put silicone under the mirror to hold it in place gives cleaner stars. This also was stacked with the right flats the first had none as it was more a night to get focus which the Esatto did easily. In the end I let Nina look after the mount to get an idea how the stars as I never got a chance to recollimate the telescope after I put it on the mount.
So how do you like your Dragon Egg flipped
