NGC6853 The Dumbbell Nebula
1st deep space object taken through my GSO RC12-A. Paramount MX has been taken through it's paces and I'm getting reasonable tracking, still a bit touchy but getting closer to +- 1.7 arcsecond error now. Within tolerance I think

Here is the higher resolution.

Another tick for a GSO RC. Nice image Simon. Good colour in the stars and in the nebula too. The saturation is pretty good I reckon.
