at the end of march 2009, i was in french for a astro trip.
on a morning my losmandy G-11 + vixen R200SS and guidescope were blown to the ground by the wind.
i still can’t photograph with the r200SS because i need to order a new set of OTA rings.
friday 29th of may, i was photographing with my eos 40D + 70-200 2,8 IS on 70mm F4,5 to NGC 7000 ( north america nebula )
ive captured 2 hours and 16 minuts in 4minut sub exposure stacked in DeepSky Stacker.
and this is an crop, with some editing to show the nebula more.

yesterday night i was finaly ready to try my autoguider, the QHY5 from QHYccd.
ive made an ST 4 cable myself, and i already got a splitter to split up the RJ12 connection from the losmandy controlpanel.
i had to manage a 300second ( 5 minute( ISO 1000 with 40D ) ) exposure of Mizar and Alcor, the Double star in the Big dipper,
i have made a crop of the left upper corner of the photograph to show that there is almost no movement in the stars, and the Baader MPCC is doing a great job !
