Title: quick packman stack
Post by: Rocket Pooch on Sep 29, 2008, 11:57:01
I just chucked this together this morning, no dark, flats or animals were hurt with this image, I will process things later when I get back, but for now...

Looking good. 
What do mean you've knocked the camera out of alignment?  Another disaster?  Or is it related to the first disaster?

no i took it in last night ready for ha tonight and I must have twisted the camera in the scope because it was rotated, hence the smaller image, that's all, no disasters tonight, guiding at .08 pixel and steady skies after 4 hours or so, anyway must goto bed....
