First First First!

Ok, so it's only Omega, but it's the first from me with a QHY8 Pro from the backyard.

Spent a fair bit of time getting drift aligned, setting the camera up and hopefully, nailing focus.

In total it was 15 x 1 minute exposures of which Images Plus stacked 12.
No darks, but flats and bias frames applied.

Processed in CS3 with very slight crop to get rid of an overscan line at the bottom of the image.

A big thank you to Doug (Hagar) for all your help and guidance!

I'm just so happy to be out there imaging, hard to believe I have to go to work in the morning, but there you go.

Comments / tips / re-processing appreciated.
Will post a high res version later!
