At this time last year, I imaged this galaxy with my new 150mm APO (using the OSC).
I now have the mono camera.
Last night from 11.30PM to 5AM I could once again track this galaxy right over the top (LUM filter).
It was a beautiful clear night and it was really exciting to see the data coming in.
The attached image is a tight crop of 50 X 5m (about 4 hrs).
Over the next 3 nights I will use the RGB filters and then have a look with Ha.
Can't wait!
Martin (if you read this). I was thinking of you when doing the stretch.
I lost 3618 pixels from clipping, out of 16,389,120 (hires)
