Tarantula - NGC 2070

Over the Xmas break there were only 2 decent nights from my location, and on one of them I was free to have a go at NGC 2070.

I'm not entirely thrilled with the results, but I thought that I would post it up anyway, the moon was around 90% full and there was the odd strong gust of wind that kept me on my toes. So all in all, not the best night to be imaging but I was going to take what I could get

ED80, Modified 350D, WO 0.8x II, 15 x 300sec, ISO 400.

NGC2070 (580kb)
NGC2070 (2.3Mb)

Interestingly I have not used ISO 400 before its always been set to 800, however the image seems to have a grainy touch which is unfortunate.
