Description

Messier 27, or the Dumbbell Nebula was one of the first deep sky targets that I imaged.  I shot it with a DSLR and a refractor scope.  It did not come out well.  Well a new scope, a good mount, an incredible camera, great guiding, and my image of this target has improved!  This was only an hour of 180 second images.  I will have to go back when I have more time to capture more images.  Happy with some of the more subtle details with only an hour of exposures.  Clear Skies!
