A calm, clear night to start out last night so time to do some imaging .... whilst waiting for M8 to rise I doodled with a couple of other objects that I may post later. I'm not too sure about my processing on this image of the Lagoon and will probably redo it later but thought I would post it anyway. Once again it looked good on my laptop and when I transferred it to my desktop it changed completely.The session once again was cut short by either smoke or cloud not sure which but I had to throw away 4 or 5 exposures that suddenly went off the tracks mid shoot
so I called it quits around 3a.m. in frustration.
details as follows :
2x1200sec plus 4x600sec exposures @-15C total 1 hour 20 minutes
WO FLT110 F7 Apo _ EQ6 Pro
SBIG ST2000XCM self guided with CCDOPS
Baader MPCC and UV/IR filters
