Ultra Wide field Crescent nebula

[Eddie]

What a weekend, stunning sunshine in the day followed by cold clear nights! Had some fun friday night putting the Atik 314e through its paces (to follow!) Saturday night I thought I would have a go with Big Red (aka Art11002)

Had a bit of trouble with my TrueTech wheel, so did not start imaging until quite late Imaged right through until twilight (well dawn!), was awesome!

Have been wanting to get this for a while, though I want to get lot more exposure to smooth things out.

Details: Borg 77EDII + 0.85x DGL reducer, Art11002 + Astronomik Ha. 10x600 sec (1hr 40min total)

Hope you like it!

You put the time in and got a great image out Eddie, but a lot of them I can't Identify as yet.

That’s a corker Eddie………. :shock:

Have you done a comparison between the 314L and 314E or just evaluating the 314E

It will be very interesting to see your results.

Yes, I have the motorised one. Its a seriously good bit of kit and when coupled with a robofocus, its very hard to beat!
