Deep Space with a Toucam

Last night was a fairly good night, with 9/10 Trans but 5/10 seeing. I was not to be deterred!

Deep Space was calling (so was the EQ6 & Toucam).

I spent from 10pm till 3:30 am and took over 80 images.

These are the best I could get with the bad seeing and a Full Moon.

All images are captured in 'Desire' with Modified Toucam 840k Pro II, ED80, and EQ6 with Synscan. Oh, and perfect polar alignment

They certainly aren't up there with DSLR images, but I think the Toucam worked hard and did well for a small Webcam.
