NGC3372 Carina Nebula

First go at this one.
20 of 4 min subs. Gain = 70
10 Darks, Flats, Bias

Hazy seeing with a great variation between subs.

Still evidence of full well in nearly all the stars.
Will reduce Gain to 50 next time

For the PI enthusiasts.

thanks Chris

It was pretty much my only choice (gap in the clouds).

Still waiting to have another go at Alnitak.
