Hi all,
With cloudy skies around here I have the chance to get some DSO processed. The first is rather unique. IC 349 is a dusty area just off Merope in the Pleades. Roland Christen pointed it out to me initially and I was able to image it with my SBIG ST2000. This image was shot with my Orion Starshoot mostly to prove that I could do it. Not fantastic, but definately there. I placed an insert from the HST as a guide as I have only seen two other images from amateurs.

The next is just good ol Snowball Nebula, also shot with the Orion.

Clear skies!
