Description

I've only been using PI for 5 months so I was interested in seeing what I could do with this challenging target.  Fortunately, I was able to get a lot of clear skies to concentrate on the OIII in the hopes I could draw out the Squid.   I was concerned about running 10 minute long subs with my EQ6R under the somewhat notorious sky conditions around Seattle but it worked out ok.  Total of 194 subs x 600sec (32 hours) for the OIII filter and 36 subs x 600 sec (6 hours) for the Ha filter.   Gain27/Offset10 @-15C.
