Hi, I raced to the YMCA parking lot tonight and set up my equatorial mount (ever tried to set one up in 5 min? looks like a Keystone comedy routine) and managed to get a few decent frames in. Estimate time about 7:15pm.

A-P Traveler at f/6 with field flattener, Canon 20Da, single frame.

What a beautiful shot! I tried to get some nice ones in Hickory tonite, but mine did not turn out nearly as nice as yours. Nicely done. I should have shot through a scope as well. Just curious, what camera settings were you using?
