I have been spending a lot of time getting better accuracy with the polar alignment of my EQ6 mount.
I revisited NGC104 / 47 Tucanae which I imaged earlier in the month with a simple Meade DSI CCD web style camera. This one was captured with a modified Canon 350D DSLR.
I took this from 6 out of ten 1 minute frames which I stacked and post processed in Nebulosity.
Astronomy and Astrophotography by Michael Booth. I live in the south of Tasmania and in the breaks between the cloudy days and nights I like to get outside and enjoy observing and photographing the night sky.
