Description

I had one clear night about a week and a half ago, and I am due for some clear nights soon, but this image is what I managed to produce from my data. I have very little sky for this object and so I had to compromise with 2 minute subs only, but at a gain of 390. I dislike this setting, preferring a gain of 120, but it is how it is. I got 50 Has and 50 OIIIs, which equates to an imaging time of 3 hours and 20 minutes - before the neighbour's tree and buildings got it the way! Thanks everyone...
