Small outer region of LMC-closeup

Hi everyone

We haven't been on line for quite some time due to personal matters. David's mum sadly passed away and I had an unexpected 10 day stay in hospital.

But we're both really glad to be back on board again now and hope to get out imaging again this month.

Our last imaging session was on October 11th when we zoned in on this small outer region of the LMC in search of something different.

We found this small area particularly interesting consisting of many small emission nebulae an OC and to the left a diamond shaped GC.

The details

Celestron C9.25 using 6.3 focal reducer at 1485 fl
Canon 40D unmodded
EQ6 Pro mount

The image is a total exposure of 74 mins
