Hi all,

Yesterday I managed to process some more of my images from my time back in Oz.

This one is NGC 2070, the Tarantula Nebula in the LMC. Combination of 20, 3 minute images with H-alpha and SII filters and 10, 3 minute images with an OIII filter; taken using a 300mm f/6 newtonian.

cheers,

Maurice

Hi Maurice,
You brought back a bunch of great images!
Must have been a great time.I can only imagine what the view through a 30" scope must be like 8O
