Carina region

[Peter Ward]

At last no more deluge from above and Sydney was finally blessed with some clear weather!

My FSQ finally got first light. Didn't have a chance to get some flat fields (to do list) and, as with all new scopes I'm still trying to work out its characteristics (don't look too closely at to bottom right of frame)

The frame is uncropped, and the Taka F3.6 reducer was also used.

Very nice image Peter, I like the way that the nebulosity extends out like waves from the main nebula.

Cheers

Wow, such a wide fov! heaps of neb throughout the whole field.
Shall make for some excellent widefield shots in the coming years!
Hope you can sort it out to get those stars nice and tight right to the corners...
