Qhy10 and nikon 70-150 zoom

Thanks to Allan for the loan of a 70-150mm Nikon lens which attaches to a QHy10.

I've always wanted to capture the area around M4 but failed in getting enough colour with my DSLR. Quite happy with this one, although i've seen images with less stars to emphasise the colours.

2.4 hours total

Thanks for looking

That really has brought out all the colour in the region and so many stars as well.
Any idea what was the fl you imaged at and the f stop of the lens?
Well done.
Allan

A very good widefield Geoff, especially with a zoom lens.


Nice colours.
