Description

Last year I had to adjust my NEQ-6 Mount just after belt modification. It took me few nights and during that time cameras were catching the photons. I was concentrated on the guiding accuracy more than on changing the object. All in all I collected almost 24h of material that I could use for stacking. I took this photo using two DSLR's. For frames with h-alpha 7nm filter I used Canon 450D with monochrome sensor. For other frames I used Canon 450D mod (Baader filter modification).
