Hi again all and another Coona shot.

This object is very low for us down under but I wanted to shoot It anyway because I've never done It before and these super nova remnents are a great target!

Again the ZS66SD/.8 reducer was used and the SXV-H9C on the G11 mount guided by the ZS110.

I used AA3 to capture align, combine and CS2 for post processing,no darks or flats were used.

Oh yes I almost forgot,the exposure were 10 minutes x 12

I do want to shoot all of this region but It is low for us and the condition have to be good to do It justas but there will be other times.

Louie

I have just been looking at your other images within the forum - all I can say is that they are beautiful.

Cheers Petra

Louie,

You captured a magnificent cosmic oil spill on a turbulent ocean.

I completely forgot you grabbed two hours of data on that one.

Well done.

Regards,
Humayun

David,

That's astounding for a DSLR!

What was the image capture data?
