Description

A quarter moon in the western sky, freezing temperatures and close to 100% humidity wasn't going to deter me from getting the scope out over the last few days when I was presented with "clear skies". I had been keen to have a crack at imaging M27, and so while I was waiting for it to rise I thought I'd have a go at NGC6357.

61 x 4min subs at ISO1600
