Finally a new image after almost 2 months of cloudy and/or windy weather!
Still loving the wide field of the Tak-60!

WOW

Now that's a nice one Ted

I'd be hard pressed to find anything to complain about.

It's a shame your weather hasn't been better so could of had more playtime cheesy

Thanks for sharing,

Ron

Thanks Dave, Rick.
I'm a little surprised at the detail I was able to tease out. I guess I shouldn't be based on the success Rick had with his Tak-60 (not that I'm trying to compare as doing so would highlight how far I have yet to go).

Nice job, Ted!  Looks like the Tak-60 is a great match for your camera.

Way to go Ted!
Lots and lots of really nicely separted close pairs (optically close, I assume) as well as those galaxies. Too bad you don't like galaxies.  wink
One question. What's that big bright star that just starting to bloom on you in middle of the galaxies?
