LMC with the trusty nifty fifty

[rmuhlack (Richard)]

My first go at the LMC, with a Nikon E-series 50mm f1.8 lens @ f4
Guided 50 x 4min guided subs @ ISO400 with a modded 400D, processed with PixInsight

After seeing the image scale here I think ideally i'd like to shoot this with a slightly longer lens, however my next stop for astro prime lenses after 50mm is 135mm, which i think is a little too far. Maybe i should try for a mosaic....

Beautiful image Richard, love the colours and the details which can really be appreciated in the full version in Astrobin! The bar looks superb!
