ASTRO: Up and running again Lagoon new shot
Hey all,
After a busy summer back again.. Sinds a long time a clear night yesterday with plenty of darkness again. Saw all of your pictures here and i must say you all did a fine job, amazing. This level is not within my reach, but i will sure try. I took the lagoon again, AT1010 (stellarvue) at prime focus with my home build camera. 10 x 120 sec with a h-alpha filter. Cooled the camera to -10 degr. It all piggybacked on the 10". Hope you like it. reg -- Dirk van den Herik A journey of thousand lightyears starts with the first step. |

I see very little in 2 minute shots no matter how many I stack. The fast f ratio of that 3" scope must help a lot as the detail in the fainter areas is quite good. I've had lousy weather here, darker skies thanks to being a few degrees south of you but usually they were dark because of clouds -- little rain, just clouds. Hope the weather there improves for you now that some night is returning. Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct. Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh". |

Dirk, very nice shot for such a low object. I will probably wait for some
astro holidays in the south before I try this. Stefan "DvandenH" schrieb im Newsbeitrag bel.net... Hey all, After a busy summer back again..
