One minute fun

I'm the sort of person that likes to get something to show from an evening's session. But lately I've been getting into longer and longer sessions where the final result can take days or weeks to put together. The results are great, but I miss having something to show for the night.

So for one night I had some fun. The rules were, no stacking, just a single sub, no guiding, nothing fancy. If I'm lucky I can get a minute unguided without too much trailing. So that's what I did.

Here is M8, M20 and M17. Each were 1 minute, taken with a GSO 10" F4 Newtonian, full spectrum modified Canon 1100D, Baader MPCC MKIII, Baader UV / IR cut filter, HEQ5 Pro unguided.

I'm amazed how fast a full spectrum modified 1100D is.
