Description

On the clear night of the 27th of August 2022, I took out my ED120 with the 0.85x reducer for a first serious session.
I picked M27 because it is easy to locate and provides a bright and detailed target.

This is shot with a ZWO ASI 533MC Pro, and a Baader UHC-S filter. Everything on top of a Skywatcher AZEQ6GT mount.

60s subs at gain 108 (unguided), dark frames and bias frames. A total of 1 hour 41 minutes stacked in Deep Sky Stacker. Post-processed uging GIMP and SIRIL.
Resized to 1500x1500 and saved in JPG for easy viewing.

Thank you for watching. Feedback welcome.
