Menzel 3

[Tony_ (Tony)]

Also known as the Ant Nebula.
Small PN in Norma. Fairly bright - easy to see in subs.
Needs a longer focal length, better optics and longer exposure to bring out more detail.

This is about 100 x 30 sec subs, darks, no flats.
Canon CDS 60D @ -14C, ISO 1600.
SCT 9.25" f/10 , CGEM unguided.

Good work Tony!

Nice to see more PN's, very small, don't think I'll attempt this one at F/4.

Cheers,

Justin.
