First go Atik16hr Bubble Neb in Ha

[SlipperySquid]

Hi all, well since I aquired the Atik16hr I haven't really had a go due to the weather and then found out that I couldn't get focus with the filter wheel, so I thought i'd have a go at Ha while I can save for a low profile focuser!

So this is 12x6 minute exposures with 10 darks, no flats.

Stacked and captured with Maxim and then processed in Photoshop cs4

It was quite windy so the tracking was an absolute pain and windows 7 is having a hissy fit with the old Atik drivers so sometimes it crashes for a laugh.

Anyway here it is...any comments taken and digested!
