Shot last night in freezing cold weather with 8" EDF astrograph operating at F6 with QSI 683 WSG camera.
15 x 10 minute exposures. See how many galaxies you can count. Image has been reduced in size to fit the 500k limit.

The Moon was up, which caused background light gradients. At midnight the lens dewed up and then frosted over, it was that cold. Forgot to use a dewcap and no dewheater too.
