1st light

Hi folks!

Last night I could test my new newtonian eventually. (10" f/4 newtonian from TS, carbon tube, Moonlite focuser with TeleVue Corrector 1.15x)

My test object was the horsehead nebula, in Ha.

The horse:

After that I captured M46, only 45 min, RGB.

Cheers

Werner

Nice Werner. I like M46 with the PN in the image too. Nice tight round stars make it sparkle.
