My 1st NGC281 (Pacman)

[philj]

Very windy last night, Despite having the wind breaks up on the south and west obs walls there was still some buffeting preventing the 10 minute subs I was hoping for. 5 minute seemed fairly stable so I managed 70 minute of 5 minute subs before a massive rain cloud drenched me and the kit before I could get the roof closed.

Still I was pleased to get imaging again ,this was going to be longer and I reckon Ill still add more to it eventually but itll do for now.

Details

Orion US 102ED at F7, Atik 314l through 6nm Ha filter. -10 from ambient cooling. 70 minutes of 5 minute subs.

Cheers

Nice contrasty image with well behaved stars. Nice and smooth too.

Thanks guys, its an interesting object this with loads going on in there, hopefully Ill add some more over the weekend clouds permitting and get some of the fainter stuff if I can stretch my subs out to 10+ mins

Yep Alan, nice to see you at Kelling.
