Big Spider

I have never imaged this object as it is behind my roof and above the street lights and trees. Not to mention the sky glow from the city.

I managed to find a spot and a night carrying the mount and trusty refractor\ DSLR down the yard .

A lot to see down south. Just an hour on the DSLR in 3min exposures with some darks and flats. DSS and PS. F5.9

Great result Ray.

Worth the hike down the backyard!

Well done!

Thanks Peter,

Now I know I can see the Tarantula I tried Ha in mono. Unfortunately ended up with several hours of bad shots. . I think I will have to give up on Nebulosity controlling PHD2, and go back to ECOS or Sharpcap .
