Beautiful results as usual Tyler -- the faint diffraction spikes on the brighter stars are a charming and welcome addition even! And the Ha really fills in the outer halo that the unaided eye totally misses. How do you like the new scope? I need to swing by your place some night this week and check it out in the daylight... Keep the nice work coming, please! -Rich --- Tyler Allred <tylerallred@earthlink.net> wrote:

Hi all. I finally got a chance last night to use my new Tak CN-212 for a little imaging. I used the scope in the Newtonian configuration and did a little Hydrogen-alpha work combined with RGB data.

Here is the result:

Take a look and let me know what you think. Comments and suggestions are always welcome!

Cheers,
