Description

The Carina Nebula[7] or Eta Carinae Nebula[8] (catalogued as NGC 3372; also known as the Grand Nebula[citation needed], Great Carina Nebula[9]) is a large, complex area of bright and dark nebulosity in the constellation Carina, and is located in the Carina–Sagittarius Arm. The nebula is approximately 8,500 light-years (2,600 pc) from Earth.

This was first light for my new Zwo ASI294MC-Pro, William Optics GT 71 and first imaging session with new Celestron Advanced VX Mount.

It was my first time guiding as well. Still a lot could be better and know still have a lot to learn.
