Here's my most recent effort. This is my first trip to relatively dark skies for imaging....previous dark sky adventures were for visual only. My 4 and 5 year olds had me pretty worn down by the time I was actually ready to capture data. Ovoid stars due to exhaustion and/or wind but nonetheless I'm excited about what dark skies allow.

Above average transparency but gusty winds with a cold front blowing in. (L+HA)RGB (20+12)10:10:10 minutes. Intes MN65 @ F5.5 ATIK16HR monochrome with manual filter wheel. Manually guided with Stellacam II. G11 mount.

Enjoy,

David

Nice image David. Congratulations on your new camera. Now all you lack is the autoguider and you won't have to work as hard. Was this taken at COE?
