Dark night bad balance Ring Nebula

I shot for 3 minutes and 20 seconds.
I left the scope running and plugging away because the little screen looked ok. Not very bad on viewing, just a bit off.
Canon 7d Prime on my small SCT so f/10 ISO 640
Not my best effort.
The ring is pretty good but the stars all had the jitters.
I'm pretty sure they are stars and not Klingon war birds.

Yes I agree Jim good job on the Ring and a very interesting Dec & RA jitters.

AHHHHH!
Klingon War Birds! :shock:
The Death Star is hiding behind the moon!
Run Away! Run Away! :cry:

Oh... wait...
Where do we run too? :hunf:

I've always liked the Ring Nebula.
Pretty little blue lifesaver in a Universe of wonder.
Maybe not your best effort Jim, but you were out there trying!
And you brought home the results. Well done! :D
