My Try at The Swan M17

Hi Guys, Last night it was super clear and I was going to go for it, and stay out till dawn if i had to, but alas the clouds came in at about 11.

Anyway I was able to capture the Swan, M17 but only got in 7 frames before it clouded over.

So here you have 7 exp @ 6 mins at 400 ISO through the Tak and 5D, ICNR on, On the G11 and Auto Guided with the 80mm WO FD, and that dreaded Orion StarShoot Autoguider, Flats were applied and processing in Image Plus with some touch up's in PS2.

This image is a full un-cropped wide field.

Please feel free to comment either way.
