Auriga_Ha

Over two consecutive nights, the 27th and 28th December 2017 I was able to image the Flaming Star Nebula region in Auriga making first use of two new pieces of equipment received at Christmas, a modified Canon 700D DSLR and an Astronomik clip-in 12nm Ha filter. With my SkyWatcher Star Adventurer mount on a Celestron Heavy duty Alt-Az tripod and using a Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM lens. In all 31 x 600s light frames at ISO 200 and f/2 were combined with x22 dark frames, x50 flat frames and x54 bias frames in DSS and processed in StarTools.
