A bunch of faint fuzzies with my 6" F5 Newtonian

M5, a magnitude 5.8 globular cluster in Serpens, 51 x 30 second frames at ISO 1600.

M80, a magnitude 7.2 globular cluster in Scorpius, 51 x 30 second frames at ISO 1600.

M104 the Sombrero galaxy in Virgo, caught him too late and only got 25 x 30 second frames at ISO 3200.

NGC5247, a cute little magnitude 10.5 galaxy in Virgo, greatly cropped and pushed hard, 77 x 30 second frames at ISO 3200.

All through my 25 year old 6 inch F5 Newtonian and Pentax K-x, unguided.

A very productive evening’s work Kevin and all unguided too!

Cheers

Thanks Dennis. Just mucking about and having fun by using Stellarium to find targets with. NGC5247 was a surprise. I haven't imaged that one before.
