After weeks of cloud second consecutive clear night last night...

Had a go at capturing the Crescent Nebula...really wasn't sure I'd get anything. I managed about 2 hours of 120 sec exposures and am pleased with what I got. It's not very detailed, but it's there and as I'd never seen it before it's ok for a first attempt.

I really should bite the bullet and start tracking...keep putting off learning a whole new pile of stuff.

Great feeling capturing something for the first time isn't it ! 

Isn't it just!! Having seen so many of these things in books and magazines it's just amazing when they appear on your screen after a few hours photographing them outside. Magic!
