Talking Be 135, The Slug Nebula?

Hi,

Sorry, but I always like to see if I can make something out of nebulae and star patterns.

Had to have a go at this rarely imaged nebula after seeing Stevens ( sjastro ) image of Be 135.

My image has only 29 minutes of data, due to very windy conditions, even with the scope protected by the dome it was hopeless!
Still only wanted to see if it was in reach of a DSLR which it is.
Shall revisit with better conditions.


Equipment used.
8” F/4 astrograph , baader type III coma corrector,. HEQ Pro 5 mount, orion mini guider.

Camera.
Unmodded Cannon 1100D, Cooler box.
3 x 8 and 1 x 5 minute subs ISO 800 .
Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker .Processed in Photoshop 7.

Cheers,

Justin.
