Grus + 1
30 x 60 secs ISO 1600. I stuffed up the intervalometer, and lost 20 subs.

Thanks Peter and Kevin. I might try the same shot with a barlow, and see if I can get a bit of detail in the trio.

Nice Raymo, is this collection listed in charts like that or does it have an NGC/M number/s? A very tempting target!

This is the Grus Quartet. The Gx to the right is NGC 7552 while the other 3 are NGCs 7582, 7590 and 7599. The three Gx's are easy to fit in the view with most scopes and a reasonable wide field EP while all four requires a TFOV of over 1 deg.

What intervalometer? I find BYEOS or APT pretty damn good and cheap in lieu of a canon intervalometer.
Otherwise...pretty damn good ...keep it up

Thanks Lee; I should have posted the pic larger, I didn't realise how well the image withstood magnification until I upped the screen to 155%.

wow Raymo, nice framing, a shame about the lost subs, but still quite a good result.
