A new scope and first light under a full moon which is not ideal but the best targets are globular clusters as they are bright and dont get washed out like galaxies and nebula. The image i captured was around 100 pics at an exposure of 30 seconds stacked in in siril.
The target is M3 (messier 3) a globular cluster in constellation Canes Venatici, around 500k stars are in this ball with a width of around 220 light years they are packed in like sardines. The cluster is 33,900
New scope v old scope
72mm increased to 102mm, so quite a big jump in apeture and give a better pixel scale for the camera.
Wow, amazing photos! Thank you for sharing them.
