I got the color frames last night. Here is my "first light" in color of my new astrograph. It will take a few images to get a hang of how this scope cathers light and what willl be the best RGB ratios.

Anyway, here it is......

Man oh man oh man oh man. Seems like a great scope in excellent hands. Hard to see how you can get it any more right.
