Hi,

Iv'e been playing with this image for a while, it's been a real pain to process but I'm finally happy with the result.
Imaging LMC objects with an unmodded DSLR is a challenge.

Equipment used.
8” F/4 astrograph , baader type 3 coma corrector,. HEQ Pro 5 mount, orion mini guider.
Camera.
Unmodded Cannon 1100D.

10 x 8 minute subs x 2, ISO 1600, Darks flats and bias frames applied.
Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker .Processed in Photoshop 7.

Cheers,

Justin.
