Very good detail in the horse and excellent control of the killer star Alnitak, the double has been clearly resolved.

Very nice! You can't beat collecting enough photons.

Interesting use fro a 'planetary' camera. I tried a similar experiment last year with the ASI224MC colour cam. See attached M57.

This was 20 x 5 secs.

all the best

Great image Peter, but I do not think Chris' Atik 383l+ can be called a "planetary camera"
