A windblown Crab

My first image of the new year

10 x 20 mins with QHY8 and RC8 on Crab Nebula. Guiding was rubbish - 1.5" RMS and peaks up to 3 or 4" - partly due to the wind, but also my mount is in need of some TLC with backlash.

Full res on Astrobin.

I'd like to try again and get more data and better guiding. But the weather gods may not allow that again this season the way things are going

Happy new year anyway!!

Regards,
Paul
