LMC - Canon 300D & 135mm lens
Making the most of a clear night.
Canon 300D & 135 mm lens, piggybacked on Orion ED80/EQ4 combo, manually guided. 6@ISO800@ f2.8, dark subtracted, aligned and stacked in IP, curves and levels in PS.
Definately out of practice

Thanks guys.
Sounds like you need to move to the country Eric. Get away from the lights and get a couple of horizon views

Good one Paul, I have such a lot of trouble with that one, but will keep trying,
when i see the final result I'm not sure if it is noise, or faint stars in the image
Ah well I'll keep at it.

Hi Paul - that is a really nice image of the LMC.
Lots of detail and nicely presented. A great image to look at.

Nicely done Paul!
135mm seems just about right to frame the whole LMC.
