Thanks, yes another telescope was used to guide the mount during the long exposure. I used a Borg 77mm achromat with a meade LPI and guidedog software to provide the guiding to the G-11 mount.

Good shot. I am wondering if you used the other telescope for guiding since each exposure is 6 minutes. Again, wonderful shot. Kyaw Southern Illnois
