I just finished processing this one. Taken with a Digital Rebel and 8" f/5 newtonan. I took one min. exposures for this, and now I realize I should have gone longer.

Comments appreciated!

Jake,

Really nice photo. You can even see IC 4617. At top of the picture about 4/5ths over going left to right is a small parallelogram standing on end. Look just below the bottom left star for the faint smudge.

BTW, I had a really nice view of this < mag 15 galaxy thru my buddy's 25" Obsession under pristine W Texas skies last new moon. Big high pressure system moved in and next thing you know we were living like vampires for 3 days straight.

Love those W TX skies,

David

Very nice picture Jake. Would you be so kind to give me a little more details (scope, total exposure time, ISO settings and so on).

Thanks for posting.

Ciao
Luca
