Ngc 1788

Probably the least well known of the nebulae in Orion :-)

NGC 1788, imaged last night 120:40:40:40 LRGB.

It would have been 180 minutes of luminance (and could have used it) except that the G11 suddenly went into an uncontrolled declination slew 2 hours in ... I guess it was a guide command that got scrambled somehow - once or twice before the G11 has slewed wildly in Dec when given a slew command. Anyone met this problem before or have any bright ideas?
