Helix Nebula with f1.8 Hyperstar
Hi all,
This is my first attempt using my new f1.8 Hyperstar lens with my Celestron GPS11 and Meade DSIc.
It's quite incredible to be able to get such a detailed one shot RGB image of a low mag object at 20x15 seconds (5 minutes) exposure with a $500 camera.
Seeing was 7 out of 10.
If you look carefully I even managed to capture the outer secondary ring.
See more of my images at our Western Sydney Amateur Astronomy club new web site http://wsaag.org
Regards
Gerry
