First image VC200L Astrofest - Corona Australis
I wanted to keep this years Astrofest to the lowest imaging/frustration level so I took the QHY8 OSC with my new 2nd hand VC200L and 6.4Flattener/reducer on the EQ6 mount.
The first image with this setup was Corona Australia Nebula with the globular NGC6723. The combination of the dust, reflection nebula and the globular are a favourite of mine.
This was a stack of 48x5min exposures at f6.4.
