    NGC6992 - Ha & OIII (WIP)

    Hi
    Since I got back off holiday in May it has been clouded over or raining or both for two months where I live so this is my first image in over two months. This is of NGC6992 and was taken over two nights with a Takahashi FSQ106ED at f5 and FLI ML8300 on a Paramount ME. Exposures are 6x30 minutes Ha and 8x30 minutes OIII. I used a lodestar and OAG with dithering for guiding. I am hoping to add some SII but at the moment the cloud and rain has come back so further developments may take a week or so. I have tried this a number of times over the last few years with various scopes, cameras and exposure times, both wih and without guiding, these can be seen in the image gallery on my website http://www.imagingtheheavens.co.uk for comparison. I have enclosed a link to the full size image

    Thanks for looking and clear skies
    Best wishes
