M17 in Ha - Equipment Test

Just really a test shot, trying out the new laptop after a week of setting up and bench testing.

Scope: Celestron 8" Edge with 0.7 reducer (FL 1422mm)
Camera: Atik One 6.0
Filter: Astronomik Ha 6nm
Mount: Orion Atlas ZA-EQ G
Guiding: OAG with Atik GP Camera and PHD2
Acquisition: SGP

The laptop is an MSI i7 GL73 8RC with a 6 core processor, 17.3" screen and an SSD and more RAM. Absolutely powers through acquisition and peocessing and the big screen is really nice!!

Image details are:
5x300s in Ha
Processed in Pixinsight with a bit of final tweakage in PS.
