3x15mins and 1x10 mins ISO 400, Idas uv/ir and Baader 7Nm Ha filters, MPCC, 6 inch F3.6 schmidt Newtonian "Cometracker" Hutech modded 350D
Full moon.
The "Bright" Sp1 contrasts with a ghostlike VBRC 7 above it near top looking like a ghost reflection.

Hi Scott,
Now thats Real Deep Imaging, a very good effort, I note you are using an 350D now, do you notice any difference between it and the 300D which I think you had before.

so tiny, just finding them would have been a challenge!

and that too with a full moon-last week I couldnt even see the Jewel Box in my finder, and the moon must have been brighter last night..well done

That's a great capture! Do you know what the magnitude of VBRC 7 is? Googling it doesn't seem to return all that much info.

It was discovered by S Van Den Bergh et al in 1973.
