Hi
Got very keen to do imaging as was a very clear night with some wind to blow the fog and fireplace smoke away, so set the alarm for 3 am to get up and catch the Helix Nebula.

Wind was howling when I got up, too windy for the scope but I tried anyway, the guidestar was bouncing around all over the place at times, but the errors werent as bad as I thought when I took the images.
3 x 15 min ISO 400 (total 45 mins) Forgot to do a flatfield, though I lack good software for adding in flatfields anyway. Gee the 300d is blue sensitive, in the old film days it was a real achievement to get any blue recorded, now I get more blue than red with the standard cut filter in the camera.
