Horsehead and Flame Nebulas

[RichieJarvis]

Well - I've had one image of the moon which I quite liked with the Genesis so far...

Now onto deep-sky - First target, purely to see the sharpness of the Genesis (the moon is interfering too much for a proper shot), here is Barnard 33 and NGC2024...

5 x 5 minute subs in Ha only.

Thanks,

Richie

Thats a nice image mate....and you've caught an aliens face sideways on between the horsehead and al.

[RichieJarvis]

Yeah - need to take some flats though, and lose the Moon!

The scope is certainly showing its great potential though - its incredibly sharp!

Ah well - moved onto the Perseus Double Cluster now... Maybe they are far enough away and starry enough to avoid the glow and haze.

Cheers,

Richie

Phew, always scarey selling a scope in a small community. But I really liked the venerable Genesis and had faith in it. more to come.
