Thanks Richard. Meades Envisage software has black and white point adjustments buld into it. While the images were being taken, I was able to adjust it on the fly w/o losing data.
My balcony doesn't provide much of a view since it has a roof over it. The view to the east goes up to about 60 degrees and to the north to about 45 degrees. I left the scope set up and am hoping to follow your lead and image on the week nights now that it is gettign dark early. If it is clear tonight I want to try Mars with the DSI Pro. It'll be interesting to compare the LPI and the DSI Pro.
