Three words will sufficently describe last night at MB: Low Suck Factor.

I took advantage of the night to test out a new-to-me meade 8" SN with the ST7E CCD camera.

There were a couple glitches, but it worked out well...

Veil - 27 minutes (9x3min) Can you guess which part this is? http://fototime.com/6874741266D1C87/orig.jpg (compare to the FSQ-106 + pentax67 image... http://fototime.com/E249AD89A14DBFA/orig.jpg )

M17 - 15 minutes (15x1min) http://fototime.com/682C938D0F28B75/orig.jpg

M13 - (kinda sucky, I think the focus is off) 14 minutes (14x1) http://fototime.com/6A5901CB7DC9E02/orig.jpg

(Fwiw, I'm suspecting the processing on the above images could be better. For one, I aligned them in ccdsoft, and had planned to use registar, but didnt have it on the machine this morning. I may redo them.)
