A Lemmon of soughts !

[astronobob]

Hi Astro-liano's
Made a quick dash for a view of Pannstarrs, but the clouds closed in the gaps. On seeing a clear patch moving over, I headed a little NW (approx 15k) and was able to capture a couple of messy frames of Lemmon, manual focus, windy, semi Lp sky, wasnt even sure were it was, but jagged it on the 2nd 70mm frame, Finally zero'd in, adjusting settings a few times.
Image gear : Camera tripod, 600D, 70-200 L @ 200mm, F2.8
Eposures : only 4 x 10 sec subs + ICNR before it sank into the murk Stacked : RSTX 5, CS3
Hope it worth a squizz.
