M27 wide

[wxsatuser]

Just a bit of fun last night while the football club lights were blazing away.

Tried to see if I could get M27 through the glare,

It's a bit small at 200mm but it's surprising what came through the LP.

This was 25x60secs Canon 60Da EF 200mm L f/3.5 ISO 800

Thanks for looking.

I like it.

Nice.

Always wondered if it would show much detail in the shorter focal lengths.

Nice, I always have a soft spot for astrophotography made with DSLRs... well done...

That's come out really well, I was wondering if M27 was reachable at 200mm.

Was this on a tracking mount?

It looks cuter than normal.

Yes my obsy based HEQ5, guided as well.

This part of the sky is virtually just glare from the floodlights across the road.

Well done. Great detail for such a small image.

That's just amazing   I think I'll have to have another go with a DSLR.

I have to say using camera lenses has made my AP fun again an hour break in the clouds Is often enough to get something decent and there allways seems to be more options even if its moon and clouds.

Yes, I think that will be the direction I shall be going in too

Thats how I look at it now.

If I can get out for an hour or two when conditions allow, I'm happy.

Really nice image, I only have a dslr now. Might see what I can get with my 150-600 if we get some clear sky!!
