About this image

As some may know my 18inch Dall-Kirkham has had issues and Orion have taken it back and are now testing and examining the optics. A BAA colleague (Nick Haigh) has kindly loaned me his old 12inch f/5 Newtonian as a stopgap and this was my first planetary imaging with the Newtonian.
