Eagle Nebula

I was presented with clear skies on Friday allowing me to have another chance at imaging. Conditions were good and there was no moon to contend with.

I really wanted to have a second attempt at M16. As it had almost been a year since the last time I had imaged it. Nothing spectacular but the coolish temperatures and calm conditions really helped.

Imaged with C8 F/6.3 on EQ6 Pro, Pulseguided through EQMOD with DMK21 and PHD, Canon 450D @ ISO1600, 26 x 5 minute exposures, stacked in DSS and processed in PS CS4.

I am pleased with the result, however I think it is time for an upgrade.

Thanks for looking.
