Ic-1275

Hi All,
Saw some pix. of IC-1275 in "Astronomy" magazine a while back, so gave it a go, there are three objects in this area, IC-1274, IC-1275 and ngc-6559, just off M-8, and about the same distance (but at right angles) as M-20, These shots were taken using an ED-80 + F-6.3 focal reducer (to get the wide field) but I think that taking just this area at F-7.5 would have been a better way to go, has anyone else imaged these objects ???.

Pix. (ED80) 5 x 6 Min. at ISO-800, DF removed, guided with LX200-10"

cheers..........Jim
