Default ASTRO: Butterfly nebula (IC1318)

The next time I used the Skywatcher ED80 with the QHY8/Astronomik UHC
combination to image the Butterfly nebula around Gamma Cygni.
7x20 minutes were all I could get in one night.

Taken from the middle of Berlin with a Skywatcher ED80 at f/5 on a G11
mount, QHY8 camera with Astronomik UHC filter, 7x20 minutes.

Much better stars as you say. I wonder if the spacing needs to be
different for the larger scope? Never used such a corrector so just a
guess.

These are good targets for you OSC.
