Atik16HR thru a Nikon MF 135mm F2.8 lens. About 3.5 hrs exposure gathered by 10 and 15 minute subs shot at both F2.8 and F4. FWHM ~1.15 @ F4 and ~1.5 @ F2.8. Carried piggyback on and guided thru a TEC140. All swinging on a Mach1GTO.

Hope you like,

David

Very nice -- reminds me of the old Palomar Sky Survey
prints of this region done with a 48" Schmidt
and 14" plates. Is this an H-alpha filter?
Is that FWHM in pixels? Good lens.
