I took the attached shot (no telescope, just my Canon 300d) last night - it's a conglomeration of 90 15-second images taken between ~ 10.45 pm and 11.15 pm. It was stacked using DeepSkyStacker (what an absolutely awesome app that is! So easy to use.....)
It's gazing at approx 140 - 150 degrees, and I have noted the star Achernar to give some perspective to the image.
At the mid-right hand side of the image is a cloud-looking object. It's not a cloud, as it shows up in the same spot in all 90 images, over a 1/2 hour period.
Can anyone identify it?? This is driving me nuts, cuz I've consulted all my night-sky applications and can't figure out what it is....:shrug:
Thanks!
