Last night the seeing was good, not great. But I went out to Wind Wolves Preserve for a 1st light for the G-11.
Here is the 1st image taken with the new mount. Luminance only, 11 x 8 min, Processing just stack, dark frame removal, high pass filter, no other enhancements.
What do you think? I am excited, the mount was really steady and tracking was great!
