Sam Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I shouldn't really post this as it's not very good. The reason I am posting it is it's from 3 exposures of 45secs each and I am just amazed at what can appear :shock:. It's also the first time I've seen these three. The cloud wasn't playing nicely tonight! In this case it's not quite the Leo Triplet - more like the Leo 2.5. (click to enlarge)3 X 45sec with Canon 400D on Orion XT8 on a HEQ5 with cloud.Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steppenwolf Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 AAaaarrrgggghhh, a fraction out with the framing but a nice capture nonetheless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Batty Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Shame about clipping off part of one of them, but still a good capture all the same.cheersRB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkis Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Nice image Sam, matters not about the clipped one. It is it's own fault for moving. Ron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 Thanks for the kind words on the Leo 2.5 image, I going to revisit this when the clouds go away and hopefully improve it somewhat. Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centroid Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 So close to the perfect 'frame' Sam, but still a good result.Nice work!!Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondog Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Good capture Sam, it's never easy on these small faint objects. You often can't see what you've got until you process the images. 8)MD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
