Description

In January of 2015 I spent a week at a wonder dark site in SW New Mexico that caters to astro folks- The Casitas. I carried the TMB-80 scope and Mach 1 mount along with the QSI 583 camera I had at the time and spent wonderful nights getting lost in the incredible dark. I had plans for a good amount of time on this object but the rapidly coming blizzard cut those short. In the end this was 12x300S RGB and 30x300s L. I had Baader filters at that at time. The challenge is the intensity of the stars and the faintness of the nebula underneath along with very little data. This is a quick look with current processing tools but much more work is needed to do justice to the data.  Thanks for your patience.
