Description

North America Nebula.

My first Ha photo. (Baader 7nm Ha filter 2")

Light Frames 17 x 90sec @ iso 1600

Dark Frames 20 x 90sec @ iso 1600

Bias Frames 30 x 1/8000sec @ iso 1600

Flat Frames 20 @ 75% histogram, keeping with iso 1600 (sky-flats)

No guiding as my WO dovetail bar has a silly ridge not allowing my SW guidescope mount to sit correctly, will modify this and try guiding next time out.

I'm very pleased how this has turned out as this is only about my 15th image and my first in Ha.

Thx Paul
