Hi Kuz. Yep. I use a ZWO adaptor and they include the right spacings for back focus. Thanks

I never tire of seeing a wide field image of this nebula and remnant. There’s so much going on. Fantastic picture
I’ve been shooting a small portion of it for a couple of nights and it’s mind blowing

Wow thanks Paul, definitely worth checking the astrobin full res...the upload here does not do justice. I will definitely need to add this target to my list of things to do :-)

Adam its a great part of the night sky right now. Hits zenith about 1 hour into darkness and great time to get some data!

Thanks Robert. The drizzle worked a charm on the full resolution!

I loved this when I saw it on facebook. It is quite inspiring. But you know I could only imagine the detail of the full res image. Look forward to more of your work.

Thanks Marc . The longer integration time paid off to get the colours through the narrowband filter.

Nice image Paul. I like the colour balance in this image. Lots of really cool stuff to view. Many of which I have imaged myself in the past. Encapsulated it makes for a very busy field.
