Running Chicken Nebula

Hi all,

Here's my latest efforts, The Running Chicken Nebula IC2944.

This image is a 2 hour 12 minute long exposure (33 x 4 min. subs) with the 12" scope.

There's a much better version of the image here

Observatory mounted telescope is a modified 12-inch f/5 Newtonian telescope on Losmandy Gemini G-11 equatorial mount. At prime-focus is a Canon EOS 300D Digital (modified) and focused with DSLR Focus. Autoguided with an SBIG 402 CCD Camera on 4.5-inch f/9 guidescope using CCDSoft. 2" Baader Multi-Purpose Coma Corrector (MPCC). 2" Baader UV/IR Rejection Filter. Image Processing Iris, Photoshop, Noiseware.
