Evening All,

Had a Dwarf 3 Smart Telescope for Christmas (A couple of weeks early really), looking for tips on the best settings to get the best images, and also tips on the best way to locate objects.

These are what ive taken so far.











Advice is appreciated

Seestar 50 here; try YouTube for hints and how to use the myriad software options to stitch together the separate images, beware though, it's a rabbit hole of some proportions..

I've recently been at a chat by Max Dobres on astro-photography for beginners, www.maxastro.fortherapy.co.uk.

Entertaining. He's an enthusiast. The costs put me off a bit, but he showed some great images which any amateur, starting with a full wallet, coult attain.
