hello members
on tuesday night i thought i would try something different and piggyback my canon 70-200mm f2.8 lens atop my g11
i really only wanted to find out what FOV i obtained so i took a few test single shots of m42, horsehead and rosette
they all looked extremely promising but when i turned it onto eta realised it is a great f.l for this and all of the above mentioned
i also have a tarantula and a chicken which i will post
eta was right over the city lights so the lp filter done a fair job i reckon
i have to say i did not do a proper pa and a one only star alignement as i just wanted to see the FOV, i wish now i would have spent ten minutes doing it!
60da, lps p2
canon 70-200 f2.8 @f5
17 120s @800, darks and flats (thought i would do it properly)

Good job. The FL is definitely good for this object. The light pollution filter certainly worked well too. Nice to see how widespread the nebula extends.
