4h Omega Centaury at F2

Hello
Last Weekend I went to San Esteban, a dark place at about 100Km from Santiago.
One of my targets was to see what I could get from this great Globular cluster.

My setup was this time a C8 equiped with Hyperstar (F/2) mounted on the CGEM and the QHY8L camera.

The Night was exceptionaly clear and dry.

I used new ascom drivers for the QHY8L, and for the first time since I have this camera, I had no issues with the flat frames

I got 26 exposures of 10 minutes and another 26 exposures of 30 secs in order to combine them in HDR.

Hope you like the result.
Geert
