[jarlaxle2k5]

Hello everybody,

i would like to share with you my last target

Scope: 8" Dob Synscan Goto

Camera: Canon 1100D modded

Subs 80 x 30sec.

Dark: 40

Bias: 45

Honestly i thought that this cluster was a bit bigger but still i think is a little nice jewel

As usual thanks for watching

Excellent result for 40m exp   

 Myself I've taken a different route - very brief exposures [like your subs] with the Lodestar camera as prime imager - all 39 DSO @ http://home.freeuk.com/m.gavin/eyelode2.html taken with a total exposure of <80m.  Ok there are compremises but I get to see lots of DSOs on the laptop in near realtime even in a brief session at the scope.  Horses for courses
