A bit of Eta Carina

[lazjen (Chris)]

I can't fit Eta Carina in my scope's FOV, so I'm going to sample sections over time. I took this last night, so lots of light around from the Moon besides the normal LP.

More details on the image acquisition and a larger image can be found on my astrobin: http://www.astrobin.com/77743/



Not amazing, but it felt good to actually get out and get *some* data!

Nice patterns in this!

Looks good. Nice tiny stars considering the focal length. Seeing must have been good, despite the moon.

Thanks guys. Actually I do remember thinking to myself that it was pretty good seeing - I couldn't see star twinkle and there was little wind around.
