Description

Here is an image of M27 from a very dark site in Heppner Oregon at an OHV Park . The sky was extremely dark with Milky Way partially visible. The image is from 16 60 second subs at ISO 1600 using a Celestron C11 at 2800mm F10 without the aid of an autoguider. The mount is a Losmandy G11 Gemini II Mount with a special RA worm gear by Ovision of Paris France.

I was amazed at the detail and clarity available from just this short run at 4,000 feet in the Blue Mountains of Oregon.
