Here is a recent image I took using data from 2 different nights. The orentation is different and it shows some what in the background. It is a 40 minute and a 25 minute exposures stacked in Picture Window and processed in PS. I need to work on my scanning. The stars in this shot are big and ugly but the nebula shows up nicely. I used a FS102 @ f/8 for the images.

Enjoy if You can!

Joe

Very nice, Joe! I've gone CCD, but I check this forum every now and then, and targets like this (not to mention the pictures!) make me want to try my hand at film one of these days. At least I know what to expect (I have an FS102 as well). Was this shot from a dark site?
