ParallaxPete Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 My first image since April time, the weather up in the north east of Scotland has been truly awful. However, there was a wee gap in the rain clouds last night so I took the opportunity to get some data on M45. I'm fairly pleased with the result given the Bortle 7/8 skies and very high humidity. Anyway, this was 90 minutes of data using an Optolong L-Pro filter on my ASI2600MC Pro and Esprit 100. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7170 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Very nice, thanks for sharing! Lovely detail in the clouds, and nice contrast in colours between the between the red/orange and blue stars. Until recently I didn't realise that M45 is the nearest Messier object to Earth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
