Description

M17 is right now at my location in a position which allows imaging. I wanted to see how my Esprit 100 performs with my Nikon D850 in APS format at ISO 800. Later last night, I directed the scope to that target and took just 17 subs at 120sec each. That is the result - I am very pleased, I must say. Alignment seems to be just right on...
Comments are hightly appreciated - thanks!
