Just a some nebular below 1 degree, taken with RCX 400 10", Barlow x4 focal length 8.250 meters, 300 seconds, guided phd, I have been trying to do all I cane see.

Must be a pain to guide at 8M. Good work with it all.

Thats a great collection with fine detail with NGC40 and Blue Snowball, and even better considering imaging fl, M76 is very beautifully caught. Keep up the pn catch there are so many around, these objects can be so varied in structure.

Very nice. Did you use an EQ mount? Any AO involved?

8.25M WOW. Great collection of real small targets.

Hi All,

Thanks for all the kind and positive comments,
Marc do not use equatorial, as the RCX is a Meade fork arm mounted on a wedge, what dos AO stand for not in to all this abbreviation used today.

a lot of differing PN there - Scott Alder would like to see some of those - he loves PN's

[p1taylor]

Hi David,

If Scott would like them in tif so he can play with them, I will email them if I get his address.

Thanks

AO stands for adaptive optics. Well if you do 300s subs at 8M FL in PHD on a fork mount and a wedge then all I have to say is :bowdown:

[p1taylor]

Hi Marc,

No adaptive optics just a standard RCX, wedge is home made because commercial ones do look very flimsy, all so made all balances system and rings for guide scope, plus not knowing it is supposed to be hard to do, all this helps.

Hi Scott,

Just finished sending images as unprocessed tif.
