My First Galaxy. It's not going to win awards but I never imagined that a dob could do something like this. It's fun exploring the limits.:D
M104 from the same night as the Eight Burst. In hindsight the seeing could have been a bit better. I presume that is why the stars are a bit blobby:confused2: So this stack is from 115 Lights and 11 darks . ISO 1600 at 10 Seconds each for a total of 19 min exposure. I can also see a sneeky little PGC92963 galaxy to the right. @16.62 and 1400MLY its a capture PB for me:thumbsup: I hope the small file size doesn't wipe it out :question:
