This is my first experience with deep space imaging, thanks to the guidance and help of my buddy Asthon Kaidi... I'm bit! I really love this scope and can't wait to do more with it. We couldn't go too long as M-8 was starting to get low into the Orange County soup.

If this is your first CCD image, I wonder what you'll be like in a year! Wonderful shot! Congrats!
