ngc 6188

first night imaging last night since feb.

i had planned in my head to image some of the bright big names, m8, m20, m16 etc (i have some catching to do to make my 12/13 images a year for next years' family 2017 calendar.

go to set up and what would you know, the Earth's moon beaming in gibbous fashion smack bang in the middle of scorpius. ehhh there goes that plan, i cant really image north, east or south. so was pretty stuck for NB targets.

ended up nabbing some bicolour data on ngc 6188, although my Oiii was compromised from dew (and moonlight) but beggars can't be choosers.

anyway here it is in multi versions. my new tv i think is way too low on red, when i did this M16 recently it looks almost salmon but on my phone it is neon as - so not sure how these will turn out yet. i will need to look into calibrating the tv somehow.

- also added a panel for a wider field for no reason whatsoever.
