The Cone Nebula and Fox Fur Nebula

I haven't posted an image for a while but I do have quite a bit of acquired data, several images at least.

This was last night after tweaking my mount's polar alignment (despite being permanently mounted I find I need to tweak Polar Alignment every now and then or if I change cameras).

This is using the FLI Microline 16 (KAF16200 CCD). This sensor has a certain liveliness to it. Its a good match for the Honders Astrograph at 1.11 arc seconds per pixel which is a good sampling rate for common seeing of around 3 arc seconds.

Not much exposure time here so another tick for the Honders getting a lot of light fast.
