Two widefields from Astrofest

Image One is the Dark Doodad. W.O. 72 mm Megrez with the type 3 reducer/flattener. Canon 20d modded on an eq5 mount,30 x 5min guided.

Image two is a widefield of M8 and M20. W.O. 72 mm Megrez with the type 3 reducer/flattener. Canon 20d modded on an eq5 mount, 36 x 3min unguided

Both images captured in Nebulosity and processed in CS3

I really like the FOV of this scope with the reducer. It doesn't show any CA and just a slight amount of coma in the corners.

Comments and Suggestions welcome
