The Red Patch In the Southern Milky Way:- Carina Nebula

The Red Patch In the Southern Milky Way:- Carina Nebula
The night did not go well could not line up the tracker nearly gave up and came home after 3/4 hour just trying to set on the Octanes which I just could not see at all. I gave up in disgust but tried the unit out no matter what very happy the way the unit works. I can see this being much better tracked properly and stacking 30 shot First shots. Single shot 30 sec Iso 6400 @200MM

The more shot combined the better but that also requires better set up to track better. Its a very shaky beginning. Many thanks for the encouragement to do better.

Thank you Toz for the encouragement very much learning and trying to perfect a methodolagie to get the photos. only been out twice with it. not helped by a non working correctly remote ( broken wire so is only working intermittently). It is a lot of fun and I can use a number of lens 50mm 105mm 70-200mm & I have tried my 150-600.

I hope to Ko I am going to take out a laser pointer to make the 4 stars stand out even if I cant 100% see them I can line the tracker up better. I will be a little disappointed if this is as good as I am going to get as I did want better quality than this. while I have taken again this single shot still is the best so I have not added a newer version.
