Description

I have imaged NGC 281 before but was never really happy with the results. I always thought I could do better.  I was able to image the Pacman Nebula for over 5 hours using 5 inch refractor (Stellarvue SVX130).  Have many subs allowed me to discard some that had higher FWHM or eccentricity. I am now happy with the result.
