Description

Sneaking in less than one hour on the Elephant Trunk with the hydrogen alpha filter was enough to produce this image,  which turned out to be the last deep sky image I captured with the CGEM DX.  The following month a Paramount MX fell into my lap for a couple of months before my AP1100GTO-AE arrived.
