Taken on 17.12.11, with the usual kit, an M25C in the William FLT98, guided by an H9C in the Vixen VMC260L.
The exposure was 23x300sec.
A hazy sky with poor seeing, the guiding fluctuated quite a lot. No clouds though.
The Moon hadn't got up when I started but contributed a bit of light later.
It was cold in the dome, but not changing much.
Acquired in Astroart5 and preprocessed there to finish off in Photoshop.
I process on one machine and post from another, but I don't know which monitor is the more accurate for brightness and colour. The posting one is new so bear with me till I get them compatible.
The brightness at the bottom left is IC410, a similar nebula. Another night perhaps.
