Description

We had three nights of clear skies over the newish moon a few weeks back and so I took advantage of them to shoot NGC891 with the WO FLT132 at f7 so 909 mm focal length. I managed roughly 7 hours of luminance and 2 hours each of RGB. Shot with the ASI 2600 MM Pro and the iOptron CEM 70. I was really pleased with the results especially given my back yard is Bortle 7 at best. Anyway it just goes to show it's always worth a try! I included a 100% crop of the galaxy as well but what I really liked about this image was all the surprise faint galaxies especially in the upper right!

Thanks for looking.

John
