Flame & Horsehead - first attempt

Skies finally cleared and the wind dropped for a while last night so a chance to get the scope out again. Only managed about an hour of actual imaging but it was enough time for my first attempt at the Flame Nebula (NGC 2024) & the Horsehead Nebula (Barnard 33).

I didn't get it framed the the way I wanted by mistakenly rotating the camera when I didn't need to - I'll know better next time.

Saxon 102mm ED triplet
Canon 40D
EQM-35 Pro
16 x 3 minute exposures + darks & flats.
Processed in DSS & Photoshop (Couldn't get it to come out well in StarTools)

Cheers,
Mark
