Hi Stan,
Incredible detail in your M8.
As you can see on my smugmug website tracking with a guide scope is doable and I'm at the mercy of Tennessee skies.

" tracking with a guide scope is doable "

Yep, your stars are pretty round.

" I'm at the mercy of Tennessee skies"

We're all at the mercy of weather (visible and invisible).?Hi-res?requires waiting for good seeing and then being able to pounce on it, which is where OAG, etc. become?advantageous.

Hi Bob

How long typically?are your exposures.

Do you do any thing special, or made any special mods?


10min is usually my max, but oocasionally with the right environmental conditions I may do 15min.

I suspect the latter may be impractical, especially if you are a stickler for round stars?

Hi Keith,

Generally speaking, I run 5-10 minute sub exposures due to light pollution issues. However, when using narrowband

filters, I can do 20 minute images with very low losses. Heavy winds are my only real problem but that is rare on clear

nights here.
