Orion Widefield

I dusted off my Canon 50mm (nifty-fifty) lens to try out a few wide field shots the other night.

I had severe pin-cushioning at f2 but found reasonable results at f5.6

This image is at F5.6, 8 x 3min subs, 15 x 3min darks taken with my Modded Canon 20D. Levels,curves and noise reduction with Photoshop CS3. I also used the Geometry function in IRIS to flatten the image.

The background looks clipped, not sure. Comments/suggestions welcome

Thanks for looking
