Hi all,
I tried to make the best of what was not the best seeing conditions i.e. fine mist of cloud and moon light scattering. Regarless I was able to find new objects I'd never seen before. Now I know what that symbol in my starmap means (Planetary Nebula) and there are quite a few up there, yay looking forward to many more nights seeking new PNB's .
Canon 60d
Astronomik CLS (EOS Clip) Light Pollution Filter
Orion Flat Field Flattener
240sec exposures
800iso_36min_8frames
Sky Watcher ED80 Pro Gold Edition
Sky Watcher HEQ5
Orion Star Shoot Guider on a 50mm Scope
Backyard EOS Software 'Camera Control'
I've attached 2 images, one with and without cropping. The Orion Field Flattener is brilliant!
Thanks for looking :) words of wisdom always welcome!
