[Coco]

Hi

Took 2hrs of Ha on NGC7380 and am now hoping to complete before the end if its season in my part of the world, its just over the meridian at around 6.00PM GMT which gives me 3 hours before the area hits my next door neighbours chimney pots

ATIK 314L+

Astronomik Ha MKII Filter

Sigma 100-300 f/4 EX DG HSM Lens @ 300mm f/4

2hrs of 10 minute exposures -15degrees

Very mystical. Looks like it's lounging back. Very well composed IMHO.

Looking forward to it's completion.

Great start Guy,

Going to be a cracker when it's complete.

[prokyon]

Very nice! You captured a lot of details, looks very dynamic.

Cheers

Lovely pic.

Whenever I see these pics, Eagle nebula, Skull nebula, Laughing monkey nebula, wizard, I can never get the orientation right to see the image people are seeing.

Now, I can see a face here looking to the left...then someone says "laying back", am I seeing the wrong thing?

Is there a thread explaining some of these images?

Looks great Guy, the nebulosity extends into deep faint wispiness.

[shaunster]

Yes a very nice start! Gotta love Ha filters
