This is the first image I have taken since I updated the G-11 mount with the rectascension extension, which also allows separating the RA and DEC units for portability. I also switched out the original tripod for a Meade Field tripod, which is lighter and packs smaller.</p> <span id="more-3922"></span> <figure class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default
