M16 Eagle with QHY8L

[DJ N]

Nice night here in Adelaide. Managed to get some subs before the cloud came in.

The details are as follows,

M16 : 8 x 720 seconds (plus darks, flats and bias)... stacked in Deep Sky Stacker and processed in PS3.

Imaged with ED120 and the QHY8L (minus 20), guided with the ED80 all on top of the EQ6 Pro.

Cheers,

Daniel

Very nice Daniel. You must have a very dark sky for doing 720s frames.

Thank Werner. Not too dark.... I am in metropolitan Adelaide, about 8km from the CBD very close to the beach. I therefore usually try and image west of the meridian out over the sea.

Cheers

Hi Daniel,

Great detail and smooth, natural colours.

A great photo.

How is the QHY8L going?

Nice detail Daniel. Stars are tight too across the field. Well done.

Good looking image, especially taken from home. Glad to see you're still using the refractor.
