LMC & Eta Carinae WF's

hi all,

i had the opportunity to go and see the skies that grace the weatbelt region of WA a while ago and this is what I have to show for it..

Eta Carinae was total 90mins RGB with a synthetic luminance..

LMC was 2 hours and 05 minutes RGB with a synthetic luminance..


Gear was a SBIG ST-L11000M with a Hasselblad (Zeiss Optics) 80mm f2.8 at f4.0.

To give an idea of how dark the skies were, I was able to easily see Centaurus A with the NAKED EYE!

To top it off it was hand guided too
