Lagoon

Hi,
I had a reasonably clear night last night although very cold. Thin high cloud and the moon made things a little difficult. But been so long without getting out with the scope because of poor weather, I just had to give it a go.
This is a single frame at prime focus of 10 mins. at ISO 800 on Nikon D90 and processed in PS CS3. ED100 scope, guided.
I did take multiple frames including darks, but stacking only made it worse!
I also have a shot of the Triffid Neb. But the colour is very much washed out. I'll work on it and post if I think I think its worth it.
Robert
