When I was a child I visited Siding Spring Observatory and saw an image of the Horse Head Nebula in their gallery. I've dreamt of capturing that nebula for myself ever since.
On the 19 September, the stars aligned! (no pun intended ;) ). I managed to squeeze a single 15min sub from my LX200 with perfect guiding. That's never happended before! Sadly, in my excitement, I got carried away and turned my telescope towards some other DSO's before the dew set in. I'm absolutely stoked with how it turned out though. Yes it's been overcooked... but who cares when you're this happy! :screwy:
DETAILS:
1260mm F/6.3 (guided)
1 x 15min, ISO 800
19 Sept 2015
CROSS VISION INSTRUCTIONS:
In cross eye freeviewing the image for the left eye is on the right and the image for the right eye is on the left. You stare at a point about 1/2 way to the screen so that your eye's gaze is crossing at the half way point.
As you cross your eyes the image will go double. When your eyes are crossed the correct amount, the middle images will overlap and be in 3D. The two outer images may remain in your peripheral vision and will be in 2D.
Thanks for looking :)
Cheers, Evan.
