Hey all,
The first of my images from this weekend and was
disappointed. I got an entire roll of what I'm 99% sure is
flexure. My ST-4 was giving me A1's 95% of the time, the rest were
A2's, and the trails are inclined about 15-20 degrees
from a straight east-west direction. At web resolution these
images look decent. The shot of M16 and M17 was fairly straightfoward
but I had quite a bit of difficulty working with the shot of Antares and Rho
Ohpiuchus as it required heavy processing to bring out the nebulosity and cut
noise. I don't like the star images in the lower portion of the image,
they seem too blurred. Ideas? Any other comments are
welcome.
Daniel
