Description

Finally acceptable conditions for astrophotograohy here after many weeks of abstinence... found some time to capture "the brain" which has been on my list for a long time. Not much integration time here but I wanted to give it a try since my mount came back from an overhaul. At the same time I wanted to test my new CLS filter here, which actually fits quite well to the degree of light pollution I'm exposed to, but I think there would have been better choices... next time I'll grap my IDAS D1 or even an L-Enhance for this target to get more O(III). Well, "the brain" keeps me thinking at least ;)
