Hi all,
It`s been awhile since I posted any deepsky shots, been too busy chasing that dirty snowball down south....with some luck weather permitting...
Its been fairly crappy since the new year with only a few nights worth pulling out the gear...
Done this on the 10th of Janurary but only just got around to processing it.
Pic is a stack of 10x5min with 6x2min and 5x30sec to help mask the bright core...Done with my 6" f/5.6 newt with my new Coma corrector...and canon 300d. Seeing was not too bad maybe 7/10.
Quiet happy with the results.... though the scope needs better collimation as the stars in the lower left are not very round..
uploaded a higher rez version on my website in the latest section...will finish that site oneday..
Anyways CS
Gary
