Yeah folks, I know I probably shouldn't share these

but these were taken on my first imaging night before I'd had expert help with my polar alignment. Therefore, the stars are bloated and a little elongated, but still...I'm surprised what signal was there.
Canon 1100D attached to a C8 Edge HD with 0.7x reducer on my EQ6.
- The Dumbbell M27 stack consists of 36x 50s exposures at ISO1600
- The Ring M57 stack consists of 31x 30s exposures at ISO3200
No darks, no flats, and biases only for the Dumbbell. I had intended to go back to these and get more data, and get darks, etc, but got distracted by other objects

(see my previous AstroFest posts!)
