Description

I tried more unguided experimentation.

This is 6 x 180 sec image using my SV 70 t with the Ioptron Skyguider pro, a relatively tiny belt drive tracker.

Camera is a 60D at 800 ISO, f4.9.

My stars were not too good, ha ha. I am getting motivated to begin guiding.

Stacked in APP and processed in Lightroom standard.

I like this region of the sky, one of my favourite places to image, with lots of interesting nebula and dust.

Any input is welcome! Thank you for looking.
