The Hoon Lagoon



Managed to work on 8 subs out of a possible 15 due to lack of seeing conditions & Guide star Dropouts, using the Orion TOAG doesnt allow for many guide stars, tho realising should pann the rig about for a stronger star - Impatient fella !

Subs were 480secs, 1.1hrs through the 10" F/4.7 Newt on Neq6p and Starshoot guiding through PHD - the one with-out the graph. have recently installed PHD2 but wasnt connecting to camera ? work it out later ...
Camera was the QHY 10 OSC at -35, Gain 40 and OffSet 125

Image Pocessing notes ; Lacking Some weird stars happening, Also Coma particularly evident Lower right corner - hense - collimation out as well

Hope you enjoy the image all the same - not sure about the color for the majority here tho I dont mind it
