Eta Carina

Hi guys,

Got my DSLR modified a few weeks back and had first light at the Leon Mow Dark Sky site up in Heathcote the last 2 nights.

Attached is the first object I shot - Eta Carina - 26 x 300 seconds at ISO 1600.

The camera other than not being cooled really rocks! It's only a 400D but is light weight which suits my set up and generally has low noise levels.

Taken with a JMI NGT 12.5" f/5 scope.

Only my first go at processing this and will play around more with the image including a crop.
