Hi all,

My first post on here, I'm relatively new to Astrophotography and recently got myself some new gear - I've always taken pics of the Milky way but that was about it. Here is my first decent DSO using NEQ6 Pro mount, Skywatcher ED100, Orion 0.85x Field Reducer/Flattener and Pentax K3. Guided by Orion 80mm shortscope and tracked by SSAG + PHD Guiding, this was 60x1 min subs with 60 dark frames @ ISO800.

Cheers, Mike
