Description

This was an early test of the QHY600m  camera on a CDK17 at Sierra Remote.   Exposure times were 180 seconds which is quite short.   Now using 600 second exposure times with IMX455 sensor based cameras.   For comparison , an early test of the KL4040 (single high gain 12 bit channel) of NGC 6720 is also posted.  I thought about cropping this image to better feature Ring but opted not to.   Suggestions  most welcome.
