Hi everyone. I've been posting my Lagoon Nebula journey over the last few months. Here is my latest attempt with even more subs added. It's the same old setup using a normal Canon 40d on a Skywatcher 8" reflector unguided on a EQ6 Pro mount. This is around 1 hour exposure now. I'll keep plugging away at it on other targets for now, and hopefully next year when the Lagoon is back I'll be a whole lot better. My journey started on the 9th August this year when I posted my first Lagoon image on this website. I have a long way to go but I think I'm showing some improvement??? Here are my first and latest images. Any advice, good or bad is always wanted. Steve.:) (This must be the worlds greatest hobby!)

looking good mate! :)

looks a bit greenish to me, but im color blind, so what do I know :D

Focus looks very good! I do love the field of view given by the skywatcher 8" newt... at times I'm sad I sold mine...
