M8 Lagoon from A.S.I.G.N. Observatory

[ASIGN_Baz]

G'day folks,

I have had a very good night here in the observatory with a dark sky, a new light pollution filter and a cool 5 degrees celcius in the dome.

Heres 44 minutes at ISO 800 on the Lagoon. Imaged with a Celestron Nexstar 11, focal reducer to F6.3. Guided manually with a ToUCam on a piggybacked ED80.

Cheers, Baz.

Old school goes high tech, cool.
