Still pushing the Toucam

Yep, I'm still pushing the Toucam.

The sky was sooooo perfect I couldn't resist firing it up.

It is hard to get the data I used to, but it's still fun getting what I can. I did take some images of 2 Galaxy Clusters in Pegasus, but poor old Toucam just couldn't quite get them

But I did get some reasonable images of other objects.

These are my results of imaging from 9pm until 4am.

All with ED80, FR, Modded Toucam, Astronomiks IR/UV filter, capture levels pushed to max on everything. All images are 10 x 3 minutes each, stacked in Registax.

1. NGC 300 Spiral (didn't quite work)
2. Tarantula
3. Trifid
4. The Running Man (first time I've imaged Running man )
5. Orion Nebula
