Steve Paxton replied to Ko Hummel:

Ko I am having all kind of difficulty in getting the newtonian in Perfect focus which has to be done on the mount but this does not look all that bad. Hence a few trials to follow once I am comfortable I will switch to mono and filters.

As Ko say, another great capture here. Looks perfectly in focus to me on here but you will know best. Well done. ~ Herb

Steve Paxton replied to Herb Riddle:

You are about 95% right what gives it away is the chunky centers on the stars with spikes. The result speaks for itself though on that I do agree.

While not perfect I tend to agree with you I have lost a number of night trying to get it right on the mount. I want something workable not this big a headache.
