Title: Extreeme Imaging
Post by: Rocket Pooch on Mar 02, 2007, 10:30:41
Hi,

I would just like to share my experiance of imaging using a 10" F6.3 Newt on a 4' pier.

To image using this setup correctly you need a step ladder and guts, I was three runs up last night laptop in hand with scope contoller dangling as well.  Its was not easy the eyepiese was about 8' off the ground.

Does anyone have any extreeme imaging stories out there?

Chris

So where is the image Chris?
Rumour has it that you were doing Saturn.
