OBSERVING NOTES AND COMMENTS

This was the first sequence of images I took using my new DSLR Focus/Camera Control Software, along with finaly firing up the scopes tracking moters. I must say I was stunned when the first images of the visualy dim, greenish smudge of smoke I have been used to seeing even through an 8' Scope.
