Title: Leo Triplet (revised image) with New ED120
Post by: Carole on Mar 07, 2011, 16:43:18
6 mins x 10 ISO 800 Usual kit as below except used new Skywatcher ED120
Done last night just after midnight. I think this has brought out a bit more detail.

Hmmm, I processed that on my laptop as was at my mum's today and the colour looks very dark on here.  Not submitted one from the laptop before so needs a bit of tweaking as much of the detail is lost.  

No time now, out for another evening. Will try to get more on M1 tonight.  

QuoteNice image, will you be up all night tonight?
I would do, but the Outreach group are going to Sevenoaks School tomorrow and we have to be there by 8.15 and I'm doing the talks, so will have to get some sleep in somewhere.

Quotemy 8" is already up and ready to go.

I have replaced the image on this thread as I posted the wrong one.

It should have been this one:
