Alpha Crucis.

Hi,

Been playing with image of Alpha Crucis for while trying to clean up the right hand side of the image.
The camera was slightly tilted making the stars on the right a bit blobby.

Never done deliberate long exposures around bright stars, quite interesting to see what's there.

8” F/4 astrograph , baader type coma corrector, HEQ Pro 5 mount, orion mini guider.
Camera.
Unmodded Cannon 1100D. Cooler box.

7 x 8 minute subs ISO 800 . Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker .Processed in Photoshop 7 .

Cheers,

Justin.
