Had some great seeing last night, although a bit hazy. Did manage to shoot a few objects. This is a 6 x 5 minute shot with the 175EDF refractor operating at F6. Unfortunately cannot post full resolution uncropped image due to 500k limit.

7nm Baader H-a filter, STL11K camera.

That's really nice! I spent some time in Cygnus a few weeks ago with my NP-127is and QSI583WS. Martin

Very nice, clearly a high quality instrument under stable skys, ~1.7 arc sec/pixel for the STL11000m 9 micron pixels, very good conditions...
