    A bit early in the AP season for M51.....

    Here is a trial image just to check the FoV.
    Taken with STC-7 and SC2 guiding. Guiding was within 0.5 arc-sec RMS, not bad for a 229mm f/9 refractor. Each RGB channel is a stack of three images of 315 seconds in HG mode.

    Very nice! You're certainly making good use of the camera!

    Can't wait to see the final version.
