More from the ST80. I am toying with the idea of getting a Skywatcher 150 dps, which would give me a bit more magnification than the 130 but still be fine for the CG GT5 mount. I could then go back to guiding and longer exposures. This image of Messier 101 is based on 150 45 second subs, but during the session, the image travelled about a third of the field of view... I think this is the reason the flats have appeared to 'not have worked' - the FOV of the flats is not the same as the stacked images.
There was quite a lot of light pollution, a moon plus somewhat hazy skies..all things considered not a bad image for an £80 telescope!
