M27 Dumb Bell Nebula after mount repairs.

Had a really good night! I did a complete disassembly and rebuild of my EQ5 pro mount. Cleaned and re-greased all surfaces and adjusted motors and worm gears. It made a significant difference in the operation of the mount. Set up tonight and was able to get 30 second images. Pointed to M27 (dumbbell nebula) and took 20 exposures. Here's the result with very minor tweaks in "GIMP". (11-4-09) I updated this photo by removing some of the images that had "star trails" and re-stacking with final processing in Nebulosity. Here's the new version.
