Pacman in Ha with DSLR

[jsigone]

With almost a waxing gibbous moon over head, I shot to the north as Pleiades & Orion area was getting washed out. Here's a late Pacman attempt, caught this right after it passed the flip and stayed on it til the coastal clouds spoiled the fun. Almost 3hrs of 5min subs on this.

Thanks for looking

Nice. I'm so tempted to buy one of those filters fo my 1000d.

If you can track 5-10mins, then it would be worth it. I got the 12nm for that tracking window + my camera doesn't have a tec cooler so 10min noise is about the limit I want to process.

It will enhance allot of the object out there and most importantly it opens up the time imaging with the high moon, without too much worries about gradients.
