The Horsehead Nebula
My first attempt at this amazing region. Keen to collect more data when the clouds part. Almost everything came together for this shot. Autoguiding was the best I have had it with the new setup and the nights were pretty nice and clear. I couldn't tame the flare from a nearby bright star though.
I had an issue from some weird noise/artifacts from the first night. I think they are from the power cables wrapped around the camera with some elastic (to take any pressure of the connections).
Thoughts/constructive criticism welcome.
