Description

I managed to get 99 subs of this, each at 2 minutes exposure time, between high wispy clouds and a full moon. I have taken this object before, but I feel this is my best yet, using the scope at 1632mm and at f9, in effect, using the reducer. This equates to an integration time of 3 hours and 18 minutes. Thanks everyone...
