Finally made it out for some astrophotography after all these months! Here is a photo of the flaming star region in Auriga with IC405 on the right and IC410 on the left with the litte fish asterism in the middle. A bit rusty in the processing after a length hiatus.

Tak 85ED at f/3.86, Canon 50D, Hutech Modified with IDAS LPS filter, 5minx10@1600ISO. Processed in Deep Sky Stacker. Mount: A-P Mach1GTO. Guide: SBIG STV eFinder mode. Location: Doughton Park, NC.

Clear Skies!
Ivan

Very nice! Good wide field there. What is the native f/number of the 85ED?

Ivan,

Do you have a "1 for 1" crop of the Flaming Star Area?
