Image was produced on the 12" telescope with 8 x 4-minute exposures @ ISO 200 using the modified Canon 300D (32-minutes total exposure time).
I used a Baader 2" Coma Corrector and Baader 2" UV/IR Cut Filter. Image is hand-guided with my 4.5" f/18 guidescope.

Image is dark subtracted, offset and flat-field adjusted in IRIS. Then Photoshop and Noiseware was used.

There's a higher res. image here

regards to everyone
Gotta be pleased with that image....

Well done.

Must be something in our water here in Newcastle for there to be so many talented astrophotographers here .
