Hi Willie,


Wow! that's a big scope is it a Dobo design? Where abouts in the world are you i.e. is the Moon low in your sky at the moment? I only ask as with that aperture why did you reduce the EFL it must have been seeing I suppose

Believe it or not, I have finally taken some images with my DMK
21AF04. I used a .5 focal reducer on the .6m scope and seeing seemed
to be quite good. Here are some of the ones I have processed, except
they are scaled down and saved as jpegs.
