Description

This is by far my best image of The Ring Nebula using my Celestron C11 at F6.3 1600mm. Next time I may try to image at my native focal length of 2800mm for this object if possible. Seeing was really great at 8 out of 10. Although I did run into issues with my RA Worm coupler and called it a night with only 14

1 minute subs.

So many issues seem to pop up while on vacation. Weather calls for thunderstorms for 1 week straight so I was very glad I did get some data at 1600mm for the very first time with M57.

The Huetch Canon 6D is really shinning at the higher resolution images now.
