Title: NGC6979 Pickerings Triangle, part of the Veil, 270915
Post by: Fay on Sep 28, 2015, 13:05:58
not bad considering the moon!!!!

28x300, QSI 583ws, 3nm Astrodon ha, 0.85fr, SW Pro 120,

This was done really to see how my software/hardware problems  were doing. sky was obviously bright, but everything went ok, so Kelling may have been a blip!

That has come out rather well, I would say.  It certainly shows your equipment is working.

Nice one.  That's worked out very well Fay, pinpoint stars across the frame too :)

There's some JPEG compression artifacts around some stars but it doesn't detract from the image.
