Part of Scorpious and Sagittarius

You would think I could have framed this a little better.

I was going to throw out the Eq2 I used to make this, not now.  Placed it on the ground roughly south, replaced the batteries, didn't have a cable release.

Will even attach a polemaster.

Canon 550D 18-55mm kit lens @27mm f4 29 30 sec lights 1600 ISO, 10 darks, 10 flats (I photographed a white door) and 18 bias frames.

 

 

Thanks for looking.

C and C very welcome.

A beauty. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for looking and the comment.

Lovely wide image, though I personally feel it would be better without the spikes.

I have never done spikes before, something different.

Yes, very nice, but IMVHO spikes should only be present if the 'scope generates them itself.

Loving the legs you have given the EQ2 which is often relegated to the back of the cupboard.

I love the subject, you have got great detail in there with a realistic colour rendition.

Each to their own but I think the spikes are very distracting to the picture.  But, hey, it's your picture not mine!
