NGC 6888

[Michael1971]

Its been a really long time I did some imaging and I have to say it wasn't that easy to start again. 

Also been updating Ascom and APT software and used phd2 for first time. So this was more of a training run..

I took a reasonable easy target NGC6888 (or Crescent Nebula.) I ended up with 21 lights x 240 sec iso 800.

Processing was like doing it for the first time to again (lol) and I will try doing it bit better later but ill post my first result now to.

Software: CDC 4.0, PHD2, APT 3.3 , EQASCOM v29a

Hardware: Skywatcher 150 pds, QHY5, Canon EOS 1100D, HEQ5 Mount

 

Clear Skies,

Mike

Like riding a bike... It'll come back to you quickly. That's a great start to phase 2 of your imaging...

Nice effort, it's a difficult target with a DSLR, i've tried it myself in the past, i think it just needs many, many hours of data.

Back in the saddle again, nice return image and it will all come flooding back as after a few images.
