Eta Carina Nebula (a bit of...)
Humble beginings, but here is my first sucessful shot of anything using a Meade DSI Pro III Colour and my 20" dob!
Im quite pleased, even though the seeing is poor tonight. I'm not sure how good the tracking is for even shortish exposures, so it will be interesting to try.
This one is a handful of 30 second exposures stacked together and de rotated with envisage. I have left the IR blocking filter in place - I think the photo is more dramatic that way...
