First Attempt DSO - Orion

[Freff]

This was a hurried attempt on Tue 1st with just a 2hr window to setup and take some images.

I only managed to take a single 60sec exposure after cocking-up the settings on my TC-80NC. I realised I messed up to late to correct it before the mist rolled in.

It was taken with a unmodded 350D, and only the Blacks slider adjusted in PS. Other than that it's straight from the camera.

I have actually written myself a brief checklist for the next session and hopefully be a bit more organised.
