Description

This is taken over 4 nights, but some nights I didn't collect much due to cloud, short night and Clamshell dome obstruction.

I decided not to waste any more time trying to reveal the Squid in Bortle 8, though I did do twice as much data on Oiii as the Ha with a fast lens.

In total:

Ha 12 x 600secs (total 2 hours)

Oiii 2 x 20mins, 2 x 30mins, and 7 x 15mins 3 x 900secs binned x 2 (total 4 hours 10 mins)

Atik460EX and Samyang 135mm F2 lens @ F2.8

Guided on HEQ5

Total imaging time 6 hours and 10 mins.

NB - 3 more hours Oiii squid added at Bortle 4
