M1..work in progress (Explored)

Imaged 21 Nov 2012 with a Nikon D5100.

Astro Tech 10" RC on a iEQ45 mount, guided by a 50mm Borg w/SSAG. Baader Moon/Skyglow filter. Stacked in DSS and processed in CS5, cropped.

 

Need to collimate the RC, and also had a problem with DEC...I forgot to lock it...:) It moved when I was putting the dew shield back on after refocusing (very cold).

 

Too lazy to polar align again so the stars are a little oval. Two and five minute exposures..about 90 minutes of subs.

 

ISOs 800 and 400.
