Wide fields from 7th September

A few quick wide fields from last night.I used a Canon 10-22 mm lens and 50D mounted on a Vixen GP mount,and was able to get five and six minute exposures.

Mainly Northern Milky way region,and one looking South.It was good to get outside and see some stars (and not watch the election circus).

Hope these are of interest.I'll have to find a decent book on astro processing,so I can learn how to stack and flat etc.

All taken in our back garden.
