May tomorrow be a better day.

Assateague Lighthouse-2 by JOHN EARLEY, on Flickr
Last night was the first clear night in weeks, so I had to setup my scope and try to shoot Andromeda again. I am getting better at aligning everything, though I think either the mount needs a bit of adjustment or the weight distribution is simply not balanced and causing it to not track cleanly sometimes. Despite this, I got a decent image of our nearest major galaxy. I think this was about 5 minutes of 15" exposures stacked, at an ISO of 1000, with my Nikon D800E and Sigma 300mm f/2.8:
Not amazing by any stretch but I'm getting better I think!
I also shot a wide-field shot on 4x5 with a 250mm lens so we'll see how that goes...
Like!
there is nothing as good as your own shot of anything
