M8 widefield

Not a great shot but it is so long since I posted anything I felt I better share it! I have been geeting my G11 setup in order and am just about there so I hope to have some results soon. This is a shot via the WO66SD with a WO0.8x FR and a Canno20D. It is 16 300s shots at iso800 stacked and calibrated in IP.

Mount was G11 with guiding via a QHY5/Lumicon OAG and Guidemaster v2. I have my setup configured so I can now do narrow and widfiled at the same time - the main scope is the 127mm ED which has the Opticastar 145m attached - so I get images set per night. Still having a few niggles with the setup but there is a an M8 Ha shot as well...
