On a weekend from March to April I have been attending a small starparty in
the north of Germany. Unfortunately weather was not as good as forecast, the first night only allowed for 40 minutes of data and the second about four hours, half of which were compromised by thin clouds. So I had 4.5 hours at f/8 with small pixels, which is a bit short for a good picture (but still better than what I can do from the city). I imaged what is probably my favourite galaxy, NGC 3938. I like it's thin "fingers", making it look like the the feet of a frog. Taken under SQM-L 21.1 skies with a lot of thin clouds with a 10" Meade ACF at f/8 on an AZ-EQ6 mount, Trius SX694 camera, 14x10min L, 13x10min combined for RGB. Stefan |
