Description

Thanks Jeff for a little visit to the Southern Hemisphere, what a treat that was! This data were gathered by him and shown here (https://www.astrobin.com/3irhav/). And I honestly can say, these are true backyard images (fighting those typical problems), just the way I like them 😊.
A first time adventure to the south is always difficult, after multiple trials with the northern targets one knows better and better how to treat the data, not in this case. Jeff passed me 3 sets, this is number 1, and of course it had to be the area around the Tarantula. Always fascinated me, what a target, countless little treats very visible even at lower focal lengths.
Cheers Jeff, that felt like Christmas!
