Eta Carina and NGC253 with the QHY8L

I had another quick session last night. It ended up being a clear night in Adelaide, albeit quite breezy, so managed to get out there.

My initial target was NGC253, but only managed to capture 3 subs before it became obscured by the neighbours trees. I was going to have an "early" night, but I noticed Eta above the other neighbours roof line so had a quick go at her.

NGC253 - 3x8min exposures (at minus 12) with the QHY8L and ED120 (plus dark, bias and flat).

Eta Carina - 4x8min exposures with the QHY8L (at minus 16) and ED120 (plus dark, bias and flat).

Thanks for looking!

Cheers,

Daniel
