Description

This image is the sum of 430 60 secs unguided subs taken with a Newton 250 mm Orion USA F 3.9 + Sharpstar coma corrector +QHY2600 + Astronomi ha 12nm filter, all on top of a Ioptron CEM60EC.

I didn't want to change the filter, so I decided to try m106 which I belived it had more ha signal. Unfortunatelly image looked pretty noisy and result was not so nice. It will be better next time.
