M57, the Ring Nebulae
Here is my first ever deep sky "focal" shot through my 10" telescope.
My polar alignement was not good and so I had to do guding corrections about
every 10 - 15 seconds. Focusing was very hard through my "dark" camera viewer,
but nevertheless I am proud of my first Deep Sky shot!
