M1 and eta Car
Over the last 2 nights I have had a window of about 1 1/2 hours without cloud. Tonight it has been pouring so time to process the pics I took. I just took grabs really trying out my new observatory. Such a luxury not to have to wind up cables etc as the clouds rolled in. Some objects worked and some didn't.
The 2 attached are
M1 - 5 x 5 min exposures only with a stock 40D through my VC200L on a EQ6 guided with guidemaster.
Eta carina- just 3 x 5 mins as above. Flats darks etc as usual.
M1 needs lots more exposure and I have much more trouble guideing when the scope is aiming east of the meridian where it was. Not sure why really. Eta is good for just 3 exposures and the red came out alright.
