Ngc 1566

G'day all,

2 clear nights in one week! This is unheard of!

NGC 1566 is very favourably located for me right now, I was able to leave the scope imaging it and it got a good long shot, 9pm until 2:45am before it hit a tree! Very happy. That meant lots of exposures.

L=10x10min
R=8x10min
G=8x10min
B=4x10min

Relatively little colour in this guy as it turns out, but it was requested for my club's newsletter so did him anyway and I am happy with the result. My second LRGB object so far.

As per the last guy (NGC 1232), same res but lower compression factor at my website..
