M17 - cropped

8x4min - QHY8 - Autoguided with ED80/PHD on G11 - Celestron 5" Newtonian. Seeing was reasonably good but the air unusually warm and humid. Bit hazy. Cropped to fit under 200k. I had planned the night to have more subs and longer exposures to complement but I had to stop momentarily to do a meridian flip. When I got back on tracking I blew a fuse (litteraly) and had to pack up as I was on the field with no spares. Something new to add to my check list. Hope you like it. Thanks for looking.
