Flaming Horse !

Ironic after a slight injury to the missus, I have had to feed her bloody.., i mean her beautiful horse lately, Gee : ) Time consuming ? ?

Moving forward, I'm quite pleased with this image, only consisting of 8 x 6mins, with a stock (unmod) 600D, Orion 8" F/4, Nights are becoming warmer now, so hope next yr can get onto it earlier and do twice over two nights ?
Need a cooled camera to smooth out the red curtain, but ultimately RGB & Lum is the GO for this target !

Also 16 x 240sec on the Helix, Learning that a batch of longer Subs would help capture the fainter halos somewhat bettera : )

Hope you find it worth the look ?
Cheers !
