The Crab Nebula - a little deeper

[steppenwolf]

Got another chance to try this object last night but battled with a faulty autoguider so, ironically, I ended up with just 5 useable subs again but these were at 400 seconds (twice the exposure of my last attempt) so the image has ended up a little deeper than last time. If you ever hear me singing the praises of autoguiding don't believe me :D

Thanks for your supportive comments folks!

Roger, your C11 should be ideal for this object as it is certainly not that big and the extra focal length of your SC will come in very handy.

Very nice SW, what filters did you use btw?

[steppenwolf]

Kevin,

This image was taken with a single shot colour CCD camera so the only filter I used was a Hutech IDAS Light Pollution filter.

Fantastic Crab Steve. Well done. Autoguiding - best thing ever - when it works
