This is the first light image with my new Takahashi FSQ106EDX4 and FLI Proline16803. This was just
a quick test image with very little exposure. This is minimal processing, with no sharpening or
gradient removal, to better determine the general quality and characteristics of the new FSQ-FLI
imaging rig.
