Eagle from Salisbury

[Starflyer]

I've got a terrible southern horizon at home so Salisbury was a great opportunity to try some imaging in that area.

Here's my attempt at capturing the Eagle nebula; 6 hours of 7 minute subs through my WO ZS80FD with the cooled Canon 450D.

Full size images here and here

I love the widefield there, great detail and nicely framed

Well worth all the time and effort spent Ian

Thanks for the comments

Cracking images again ..

You have ceratinly made excellent use of all the opportunities you had at Salisbury

You have the same problem as me then..Im blocked by massive lime, plane and pine trees to the South... although the new owner is allowing me access to trim them to maintain the hour wide gap I have down to about 30 degrees

Fantastic image Ian. As Peter says, you certainly made the max use of the good skies.

Nice one Ian!, Details on the widefield is beautiful

Thanks guys. I have a narrow garden Peter and South is over a hedge / trees, I get a decent East horizon but that's also the most light polluted.

More nice images Ian. 6 hours here, 6 hours there... it's amazing how many clear nights there must have been

That's a corking image Ian - even more impressive that it's from a DSLR - the orientation of the 'bird' is exactly the same as mine in the cropped one - swooping down to pick up an astrorabbit!

Nice!
