Hi folks,
this is my first image here. So good 'ay
Usually post on the SX Yahoo group.
Saturday night was quite reasonable conditions, although a bit of disruption to the atmosphere up to around 35 degrees.
I was after some colour data to finish off a Sagitarius star field image that I had taken some lum on previously.
But Dr Who was on (Cybermen... cool) and I missed my window of opportunity on this object by the time I unglued myself from the box. It hit the meridian and was heading over to the light dome of my near by town.
So went for Tucana instead to save myself the drama of a gem flip and gradients.
Tucana was about 35degs low in the sky when I started my lum run, but was just nice not to have to worry about guiding and short sharp shiny subs is always a joy.
Here's a link to the image via my front page if you'd like to take a peak

Hope your getting your share of imaging time this new moon.
Cheers for now
Rich
