Unfortunately the weather gods played their usual trick allowing me no more than a few minutes each time at this target before clouding over again and again..so at the end of the night I had nowhere near the total exposure I had hoped to get
still it was first light so I cant really complain.
site: Linden, Blue Mountains
target: nebuale and clusters in the LMC (in the region surrounding NGC 2032 and friends)
scope ED 80 on autoguided CG5 mount
canon Digital Rebel (IR filter removed-Baader UV/IR filter used)
4x5 minutes at ISO 800
processed in IRIS and Photoshop
