You really are on a roll Carole, that lens has revitalised your astrophotography no end. Keep it up!

Thanks Duncan, I don't have many more targets I can do from home until the winter season as I really need to do narrowband. Some targets are broadband, some are too small with this set up.

At least it has kept me busy during the CV period when i can't get to DSC.

It certainly is an amazing lens.

That's a great result - I really like it.

You seem to have mastered narrowband now and you're producing some really good images.

Oooh! A bit of pareidolia on looking again!

Looked at the yellow patch above the blue bit and can see a face.
