[5ash (Philip)]

this shot is made up of 4pics @iso800 stacked and 4 pics at iso 1600 stacked and the resulting two pics stacked in registax , levels adjusted in photoshop , noise reduced in neat image and picture finally cropped. Taken using a canon 350d unmodified attached to an Lx90 with a ~f7 homemade focal reducer on an adjustable polar aligned wooden wedge mounted on a pier. telescope was unguided and pictures taken using a homemade interval timer . best pics (no trailing) were stacked.Nothing like the Hubble look alikes i've seen on this forum but best i can do so far with my setup.
