Here is a somewhat southerly object imaged recently. I have attached an image. Full size image and exposure / processing details at:

http://jthommes.com/Astro/NGC7793.htm

Scope was a C8 at f/10, Camera was the Artemis 285.

Slow scope, dim object, and low on the horizon forced me to do this at 2x2 bin on the luminance. Although I did only expose 45 minutes.

Continually amazed at the results with your setup, Jim. And I really appreciate the "dial-up friendly" attachments. Looking forward to the next installment.

Keep up the good work!

Nice object... it reminds me of the Pinwheel. Thanks Jim!

Jeff, Tyler,
Thanks for the comments...

I think the attachments are dial up friendly because I am on Dial up as well. wink
