Hi all,
I managed to capture 3 hours of unfiltered OSC exposures on the Lobster Nebula NGC 6357 at Wiruna during SPSP. It was my first time out under truly dark skies in 2 years.
My original plan was to supplement it with some narrowband data from back home in Sydney but given that I was unable to fit the whole object in at my focal length I'm not sure it's really worth it. Perhaps a bit of a further camera rotation would've allowed better framing? (but as I had to do the rotation manually it was rather time consuming & time was limited)
This was my first go at stacking in Siril and it seems to work pretty well.
Scope: Skywatcher MN190
Camera: ZWO ASI2600mc
Exposure 52 x 3.5min sub-exposures.
