Ant Nebula Menzel 3
Here's a full resolution crop of the Ant Nebula (Menzel3) in Norma.
4x5mins ISO400 uv/ir filter, modded 350D, MPCC coma corrector, hand guided off axis. 10 inch f5.6 newtonian.
Seeing seemed to deteriorate as the imaging went on as the guidestar started out with only slight jittering then seemed to jump around quite a bit later on.
The nebula is 25 arc seconds in size.
