Lagoon and M20

Spent last night continuing the autoguidinhg experience - again under the full moon. I was quite happy with the way the lagoon worked out. Need to spend a lot more time on M20. Each image is around 20x2min subs (per channel).

Thanks for looking.

Peter

Great work Peter, just goes to show mate when the moons up, there's still plenty to do, the proof is in your efforts.

Very nice Peter, the lagoon is showing some wonderful detail for a moonlit night.

Was that taken with a Ha filter or an IR filter?

Cheers

I'm at it again tonight - this time with more subs. The lagoon was taken through a Baader UV/IR and the Meade R filter.
