Helix Nebula widefield
Hi all
Heres the Helix Nebula.
7x10 mins ISO200. Modded 350D, LPS filter. 300mmf2.8 flourite lens from Bert. Very slight polluted skies, worse then previous night when I was comet imaging. Ireckon Id have little chance of seeing the Helix visually with my 10 inch scope under last nights skies. The Northeast Arc is there, its fainter then the Horsehead Nebula area.

Widefield gives it perspective.

Very well done. Captured perfectly.

So much detail for only a 300mm lens.

Amazing.
