M16 Eagle

Hi,
Having fun imaging last night even though I lost about 20 images because I added the williams Optic focuser and forgot to rebalance the mount and was getting the stars with the skinny line through it....stupid me...was too excited to think well thats my excuse.....hehehe

Taken from my House Brisbane

20 x 4 minute autoguided exposure's at ISO800 canon 350D Modded
10" Lx200R F10 fl 2500mm

Hutech LPR filter used.

Calibrated in Imagesplus and touched up in PhotoshopCS2.

Flats were applied this time.

I am liking what I am seeing with this scope even though I have to take much longer exposures at F10.

I have attached a flat field shot....looks flat to me.

High Rez warning 1.2mb
