Andromeda, M52 and bubble

[GlassWalker]

More from last night...

A quick Andromeda. Don't look at Bob's for comparison and I might get away with it!

M52 and bubble nebula. Need more focal length on this one.

Great

Good pictures mate! What telescope have you used?

[GlassWalker]

I didn't use a scope, this was a camera lens. Sigma 120-300mm f/2.8 OS HSM. There's probably some more random letters in the full name...

Whadya mean "don't look at Bob's".

Great work. Must add the Bubble to my To Do list but there never seems to be enough time with the weather we have to endure!

Very nice pics. Were you using your EQ6 or Astrotrac for this? What level of zoom did you use on your lens?

[GlassWalker]

This was guided on EQ6. Lens at 300mm f/2.8.

Bob, your recent take on it got many comments along the lines of "best ever", and I'm a loooooong way off that!

Bubble is definitely on my revisit list, but needs a lot more focal length and I'm not sure my alignment and guiding is 100% up for that yet, especially as the speeds go down with longer focal lengths...

Wow!! That's awesome!!
