Description

The first image of the season after a long, light summer here in south-western Norway. It was also the first really test of Celestron RASA 8 on iOptron's GEM45EC. A narrowband series for a total of 5 hrs. A result I am pleased with taking into account that the moon was full and the equipment new. I look forward to playing aorund with RASA 8 during the months to come.... but tomorrow it is going to rain.
