Finally got round to processing the other batch of data I got on September 19. This concerned 302 30s exposures with the modded Canon 550D and 200 mm F/2.8 L lens stopped down with a step-down ring to F/3.5 on my EQ3-2 mount. This was clicking away with an interval timer while my ASI183MC was gathering M27 data on the Meade SN6. I stacked the results in APP, and tweaked a little bit in Gimp.

NGC7000-9060.0s-MSC_1_3.0_none-x_1.0_LZ3-NS-full-qua-add-sc_BWMV_nor-AAD-RE-MBB10-cbg_2.thumb.jpg.550333033707a6a33aa18e0a14393db9.jpg

No filters used, and focus was apparently nudged slightly off, which caused red halos round stars. Still, I am quite happy how much detail was captured in the nebula itself, given my Bortle 4-5 skies. Should try this combination again, and lock focus properly.
