Ngc6188

Quite a good night in Brisbane last night. Managed to get 2.5 hours on NGC6188 and NGC6164 before packing up. Quite happy with how it turned out given the moon and Brissy sky glow.

Cheers Rick. I've also been trying to sort out some issues - think I've finally got the autofocus behaving. Next I need to track down a bit of tilt. The seeing wasn't that good last night but it was nice to have a clear dry night.

Good one Peter. Nice star colors. It's a tough one to get in RGB. Pretty faint and embedded in such a dense starfield. Hard to stick out unless you do NB and kill all the stars.

Nice mate! Looks like you sorted the tilt out. Adding some Ha to it?

Needs NB now Peter, but still a good capture.
