Had good seeing despite a strongish breeze that the house protected the scope from in the backyard, so got this rather condensed globular.

9x5 mins ISO200 uv/ir filter, mpcc coma corrector, modded 350D on 10 inch f5.6 newtonian. Off axis hand guided with q guider cam.

Did 5 rather then 10 min. subs to avoit overexposing the core too much.

A great capture Scott, the widefield view really sets it off.

Have to agree Scott, you have done well with this one, ;) yea, and tell me about the wind last night it was a shocker down here as well. :scared:

Couldn't even keep it guiding, tried for a couple of hours and gave up.:sadeyes:

Leon :thumbsup:

Great work getting anything that sharp with the wind. I didn't even set up that night. And the yellow is what I would expect from a glob.
