Fornax Dwarf
Went for another rediculously low surface brightness object, the Fornax Dwarf. It was so faint there was no trace of it in the subs, only after stacking and processing can it be seen.
6x5 mins iso400 and 5x 10 mins iso 200, with some cloud interruptions. I would have added another hour or more of data had the weather allowed it. I used the 6 inch f3.6 Schmidt newt., Baader MPCC and modded 350D with uv/ir filter. No attempt at noise reduction.
The faint splotch top left of centre I believe is a reflection of a star off the corrector plate.
