I'm starting to consider that Chris.  The negs appear to be very very slightly more out of focus on one side of the neg than the other.  I can't wait to get my Borg 100ED together.

Daniel, it almost looks like a tilted focuser on the rho shot.

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
