Done at DSC on Friday , wonderful views with Milky Way taking pride of place.
27 x 5 Minute Subs Dithered.
16 x Flats.
16 Bias.

DSS and Photoshop.
APT and Phd2 with dithering for the first time, once i got them talking it seemed to go smoothly.

You are persevering. i setup the other night, but it was not a good sky, I was a bit rusty as well!!

Well done!

It's great that you've got dithering to work.

That target is not an easy one (why are you concentrating on difficult targets?) but you've captured a good amount of nebulosity.

Looking great Roger, glad we got your flats sorted for you at the weekend, I am sure you will find processing easier with good flats. 

You are coming on in leaps and bounds, just be careful not to overstretch the stars.
