NGC 6357 the lobster.

Hi,

This is the first time I've imaged the Lobster nebula, and I'm very happy the way it's turned out. Some more data later would be nice, that's if I can find another couple of hours cloud free.
Tuesday and Wednesday look promising, probably jinxed it now saying that.

Equipment.

8" Newtonian astrograph f/4. on HEQ pro 5 mount. Orion mini guider.

Unmodded canon 1100D, baader coma corrector, cooler box.

13 x 9 minute subs, iso 800, stacked in DSS, processed in PS7.

Cheers,

Justin.
