Hi Willie, 

I`ve had a kip myself! What a scope!-I guess you have limited time with it? Trouble is with some shots that need a slight tweak in focus is that you can`t re-do them immediately! Here`s a shot of mine taken with my original 4" scope with Theophilus, Francastorius etc.; http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Astro_IIDC/photos/album/759683265/pic/842305346/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&count=20&dir=asc 

I remember you were around to introduce me to things back in those days! All your attachments are now showing up here by the way. 


Mark.

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.
