Photo of M35

While I've been waiting for the clouds to clear, I've been making progress on my new tripod and barn door tracker.  Hopefully this will be the final version.  All the parts are cut and I've been applying the varnish.  Should be ready to go later this week.  Once it's up and working, I'll post pictures and plans.

I've also been playing around with processing some photos I took with the old barn door tracker.  Here's one of M35 taken with my Canon T3i and Bushnell 135mm lens.  ISO 1600, f/2.8, 174 x 2 second exposures.
