My first try at Astrophotography- Eta carinae

Hi all, i am new to this hobby and it has opened up a whole new world, oops i mean universe. What i have learnt is that it is an expensive hobby and very technical.

This is my first try at photographing NGC 3372.

I took 20x 60s lights at 1600 ISO using my standard canon 650D camera.
with corresponding darks and some flats.

Stacked using DSS and processed in photoshop CS6.

These are low res pics though. not sure if they will come out well, stipp playing around with a file converter package for uploads.

Anyway, im loving it!

John
