Carina w/ED80 + Orion Area

Hi All,
Took some more Pix. of Carina, a fantastic astrophotography subject, lots of scope for large or small FOV Pix., I must try some large FOV ones get the jewel box in with the nebula, gives terrific perspective, anyway these Pix. are the ED80+Canon (modded) + F-6.3 Meade Focal reducer, and the Orion area using an Nikon ED Camera Lens at 200mm F/L .

Carina was 6 x 4 Min. at ISO800, DF removed, guided
Orion Area was 6 x 6 Min. at ISO800, DF removed, guided
The overdone Carina Pix. im adding for perspective (taken last march) to show how many stars the area has.


cheers...................Jim
