M82

Looks like I'm not the only one to take advantage of Saturdays weather... or lack of :-)

Lots more short frames with the lodestar on my f5 12" newt. M82: best 300 5second frames from 400 frames. I was very pleased to notice in processing the faintest traces of the hydrogen Alpha emissions either side of the core.. although so faint it really doesn't show up in this image. I also realised why I haven't beaten ~2.5 arc second FWHM.. 1 arc second pixels, I wasn't seeing limited but kit limited.. doh!. so I'll have to give the barlow a try on the deep sky work. All processed in IRIS (love it!)

thanks for looking
