M20 M8 Celestial dance

[Nikolas]

I know these have been done to death but this is a new one for me
M8 and M20 enjoying a celestial dance,
Skywatcher ED72 zwo 294mc Pro guided with 120mm mini
NEq6 Pro and ZWO asiair
6 x 10 minutes and 47 x 120 seconds combined, in Astropixel processor
Optolong L-Enhance Filter.
I think I may have an imaging tilt as the stars look a little elongated bottom left whereas that does not happen on the TS 130
That or my flattener is askew.

Comments welcome

*Sigh* why do I bother????

Do bother, great job mate. Keep up the good work you can see the time and effort in the image. Well done, I like scale also!

Just getting outside at night, the peace and quiet is bliss. So I always bother, whether you get a response on here or not should be irrelevant. :lol:
Clear skies.

By the way I have your wish list covered...almost :P

Wishlist :
dark cloudless skies, bortle 3/2 sky
5 Acres, yep but comes with horses, animals and kids :screwy:
Observatory, yep roll off roof :)
Sanity, working on that on my imaging night :lol:

Hope one day you cover that wish list, I'm thankful for everyday I drive down my little road.

You also have the weather :)

Very nice wide field. :thumbsup:

It's images like this that really have me wanting to get a dual narrowband filter. Would love to be able to do some wide field narrowband while stuck in "lockdown" in the burbs.

[Nikolas]

Thanks everyone, I'm considering the L-Extreme to get an even better HA/O3 "experience" as both are at 7nm. Now that I have got guiding sorted. ( a loose grub screw on the RA worm drive when I did the belt mod who would have known?)

[Atmos]

I've been eyeing that one off too but I've been waiting to see if there is any reported "reflection" issues with it. So few samples out there in the wild though so not many images to see.

A very pleasing wide field image - well done Nik :thumbsup:
