Hi folks,

after a very long time of abstinence I am back here. Motivation for astrophotography is not always the same. I did nothing in months. But now my love for astronomy is back. I bought a new telescope (TeleVue 127) and started with a session for two nights with the Canon EF 200LII.
I tried to capture a very faint object, IC 360. Between Plejades, Hyades and California Nebula there is a lot of dust. My picture shows a part of it.
Done with Moravian G2-8300FW, 35x600s L and 15x300s for every channel in RGB.

Nice one Werner. I Like the dust cloud bottom right with the star dead centre. Nice blue area alongside/behind. Be a good area to zero in on.:) Cheers, Richard

Nice and dusty, Werner. There's a brown dwarf in that field (2MASS J04141188+2811535). I can't see it but it might be visible in the full res version. It is very close to V* V773 Tau. I was able to pick it up in an image taken with a FSQ-106ED and KAF-8300 sensor.

Cheers,
Rick.
