HELIX from 01-07-08

Hi All

Took this image a week or so ago and only just got around to processing. Probably could be done a bit better ... had good data ( although stars a bit eggy ) ... very cold, clear, moonless night ... my nose nearly froze in my observatory. Hope you like it ... I also got data on ngc253 ... will post later when finished.

Details :

18x360 sec @ -17 ... Total 1 hour 48 mins
SW 254mm F4.7 Newt
SBIG ST2000XCM self guided in CCDOPS
EQ6 Pro
Baader MPCC, Baader UV/IR, IDAS LPS2



p.s. Wanted to get 2 hours straight but guiding went to crapp for some reason ... maybe heavy dew ... I don't know ... weird.
