Description

Memorial day weekend, converted the summer rig (Nexstar Evo 8" SCT on HEQ5 Pro mount, ZWO 294MC Pro main camera and 120mm guidecam, ASI Air Plus and Optolong L Pro filter) back to 1305mm FL, using the 0.63x FR FF.

Whirlpool Galaxy, Bode’s Galaxy and the Cigar Galaxy: used the "Sky Atlas" feature of ASI Air app to get the two targets in one shot, and it works perfectly to frame multiple targets.. yay!!!
