Hi all,

I think the seeing was decent, but I am convinced the collimation on the C925 was a bit off. Anyway, you can see decent detail, but the flaring is a bit distracting. I think I corrected it for the following days, to be posted later. This was shot with the Lumenera at F/30, 30fps and 979/3000 images, enlarged 1.5x.

HI Paul,

Very nice with good detail, looks a little to red on my monitor, I'm having some trouble getting the color right with the LUO75C too.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins
