Despite only 24 minutes, there's a surprising amount of wispy, bloby bits of nebula that pop out.

Pleeze eggscuse the noise, I've squeezed it for all it's worth. Astronomik CLS filter, 8x3 minute subs at ISO400, Kson ED80 @ F5.5, full spectrum modified Nikon D70s, HEQ5 Pro goto, air temp 26C. Got to get a cooler for this camera one day.
Good work Kevin!

Looks like you have been hampered somewhat getting more data.
You might have to make a cooler box for your Nikon, at the moment they are only made for Canon DSLR's.

PS, Like the idea of a kitchen observatory, a snack and a tinny always within reach.

Cheers,

Justin.
