NGC 6302, Bug Nebula - testing 123...

I have been testing my GSO RC10 AO-LF setup at home in preparation for the coming new moon weekend. I have never used it in the field before, so it seemed a prudent thing to do before I head out looking for darker skies. I did manage to mess up several different ways over a couple of nights, so I hope I have learned a few errors not to repeat

Here's NGC 6302, the Bug Nebula, at 2000mm focal length (f/8). Not a whole lot of data, about 60 mins L and 30 each of R, G, B. Taken from inner suburban Brisbane on a windy night and with only minimal processing. It's not a great image, but I think it shows some promise.

Thanks for looking and any constructive comments...

Cheers,
Rick.
