A quick mono M108

[MikeD]

First time out for me in ages last night.

I have been working on an M33 mosaic over the last few months, but by the time the clouds cleared I was not left with long enough to get a decent run on M33.

So I Pointed the scope to an area of the sky where I could get a good run without a pier flip and looked for a galaxy I didn't think I had imaged before.

M108 it was.

I did shoot 20 @ 600 seconds but passing cloud killed 7 of them,

So with only 13 @ 600 seconds Luminance the result is a little more noisy than I would have liked but there is a nice scattering of background galaxies in the FOV.

Good to get out again and find everything still working.

Usual setup of 10" newt and HX916 CCD

A great start on this one Mike, I lost count on the background galaxies!

Looks like a promising object to image.

Very nice, its always feels great to pull in something good when you have been away for a bit.
