Five on a frosty night

Hi All.

Last night it was a chilly minus two degrees, however it was clear and seeing seemed pretty good.

I managed to image five objects, using the Canon 300mm F/2.8 lens with a Canon 1.4 Extender, giving me a 420 mm focal length, giving a great wide field

I think they turned out pretty good, but i will let you good people be the judge.

The evening comprised of, ten exposures of each object, at 35 seconds each, at 800 ISO, unguided on G11 mount, In camera noise reduction 2, no flats, and processed in Image Plus, images are not cropped.

Hope you like them.

Not necessarily in this order is Omega Gentauri, M7 in Scorpio, M20 and M8 in one frame, M16 Eagle nebula, and m17 Swan or Lobster Nebula
