Lagoon and Trifid nebulae

Having got an adapter modified to mount a filter, last night looked promising so I set up and had a crack at some data covering the Lagoon and Trifid nebulae. I still need to tweak my sensor spacing but aside from that I am pretty happy with how the setup performs now.



38 X 5 min shots using an Evostar 72mm scope with 0.85 reducer/corrector and the ASI294MC Pro camera. Integrated in Astro Pixel Processor and a bit of a polish in Photoshop. More data to come if I get another clear night. I think with nebulosity going out of the frame I might have to do a 2 panel mosaic here if time and weather permit.
