Last night (Monday) was finally able to get the telescope out and did some viewing and a little imaging but unfortunately the dew point hit right after I started but got a very rough capture of NGC891. That's right Dean, I captured this so you could see it again, but as I said dew was all over the lens so it is not by far my better or best work but wanted to share it.
This one is tough as I cannot see it live on the imager and took some time trying to locate it, a few times it was right in front but until I ran a 45 second exposure I couldn't see it. I did these at 60 seconds and tried to capture 20 images but only 6-7 was worth stacking. Future attempts will require at least 120-150 seconds of exposure. Guess I better get my autoguiding up and running.
