Description

This started out as a Luminance test image to test auto-guiding. The weather here at the Sagrada Observatory has been cloudy with the summer monsoons. It is the case that early in the morning, the weather becomes semi-transparent, hence the opportunity to do some test images for an hour or so. Anyway...

This image was acquired over three nights early in the morning, 10 x 600 seconds Ha; 2x2; 16 x 180 seconds Luminance 1x1 ; and 10 x 300 seconds 2x2 each RGB. I think that I will add some Ha next clear night. Once the skies clear, I'll attempt a more serious effort on this object.
