Prawn and Eagle

[that_guy (Tony)]

Got some decent shots after the moon set around midnight. Prawn was a bit of a challenge since its fainter than most other objects ive imaged so far. The eagle was easier but I had to crop a large chunk of the frame because of some dust on the sensor (mustve gotten on the sensor when I was taking out the Ha clip on filter earlier). They're all ISO800 at 5 min. Managed to get 21 frames for the Eagle nebula but only 10 frames for the Prawn. Processed only in StarTools as I'm too scared to even open up photoshop

Reprocessed both after a nights sleep aha, what difference rested eyes make

EDIT: again, compression killed the images Astrobin links it is!

Nice. What was the problem, if you don't mind me asking (and hijacking your post)?

No problem, it was just the wrong mirror was installed. I assume something faster than f.4 seei g as how i didnt have enough in focus.
