Making the most of a bad night out

Hi All

Popped out last Saturday, everything was looking good but after only an hour, small high cloud started ruining subs and after about 3 hours, the heavy clouds rolled in and cut the night short.

Still, I thought I would have a crack at trying to salvage something from the night and Im pretty happy with what came out.

Pleiades had the most data at 16 x 300sec subs and I think it turned out quite well, nice amount of detail.

Horse Head Nebula got 11 x 300sec subs but they were already starting to be ruined by the cloud, still surprised but its very noisy.

The Vails received 9 subs but it was very low on the horizon and the subs came out very brown, Im happy with the detail though.

All up, not a great night but im happy that my equipment didn't give me any issues, you cant always control the weather.

Thanks for looking and please give me any input.

Regards
Chris
