Here's a magical mystical M45
This image was an adventure, multiple trips and battling very strange conditions. The first night I had very strong foggy conditions. Of course the second night the fog rolled in again as soon as I setup! Mind you the seeing was incredible that night had it not been for the fog.
Regardless I kept shooting and was surprised at the results it was a slightly glowing M45, not full of halos, so I kept the data. The extra couple of nights helped control some of the added glow, but I like the overall effect it's a slightly more glowing or 'magical' as I call it M45 than typically seen.
The third night, I got clouded over just after setting up and a few frames in...
The fourth night I was with a friend trying to get his EQMOD setup, it was a hilarious night full of gremlins for my friend, from batteries, to windows 10, to cable issues. Together we tackled most of the issues and made some progress. Luckily my setup was working ok so we could focus on his.
The fifth night was a test to see if I can image in -15C weather, I was able to do it, it's not fun! But I learned a lot to help make next time easier..
2016 was a great year, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!
