1st Attempt at Leo Triplet

[dcalleja]

All
My 1st attempt at the Leo Triplet. I thought I'd have a go during Earth Hour but my neighbour decided to leave his porch light on all night , so this was taken pretty much looking through it! Not nearly enough exposures but I was happy to see the the three amigos appear on my monitor.

SS Pro on ED80 with 2inch CLS Filter

Processed in CCDStack and CS3

Nice shot Dan. Must try and have a go at this - maybe tonight.

The weather gods in Sydney have been kind of late. Good luck

Good start Dan.
Shame about your neighbour's light, that would drive me up the wall.

Once you get more exposure on this, it will come up a treat !
