The Dome
Friday 15th of June 2007 11:16:42 PM
Time is passing fast now , and still no Dome , but we had a call today , to say the brackets that were made wrong are now on the way ,so hopefully this long awaited Dome will be finished by next weekend , this as you all know will give me a big boost to improve my imaging , with a permanent set up , i can hopefully get things more accurate for longer exposures, although i still have to convince myself that this will improve what i already do , we shall see, but at least i will be able to image when the wind blows ,and also block out those nasty back garden lights that appear bright every time a fox or cat gets close,so thats the update for me at the moment , to late for me at present for imaging, getting older ya know , cant stay up to late .
So please watch this space, for future dynamic images,
Ok things have moved on now ,and the Dome is finally finished, its been along hard time getting things sorted out ,everything is now set up , all polar aligned and drift align, scopes used perm are the C11 and the SKy watcher ED80 Equinox, have introduced Guiding by the way of PHD, this seems to be ok at the moment after getting various settings tweaked. also have bought myself another Atik filter wheel set up for narrow band imaging , this also has a 6NM High -Alpha filter , which hopefully will give even better results,so thats about it for now , just keep watching for hopefully ever improved images.
