One of my faves... Eskimo Nebula

Nice Eskimo!

Did you try out the barlow?

[-=CROMAN=-]

Yeah the barlow gave me the best image of saturn I've seen yet! Thanks...

[erikruud]

And you didn't share it with us?

[-=CROMAN=-]

I used the barlow visually. When I put the camera into it I totally lost Saturn and it had gotten too late to search for it. Not to mention my polar alignment was not the best last night as I was not on level ground. Ill try again in a couple of days.

I like.

On your menu screen, there is a white balance setting. Is there a Tungsten option? If so, then it might help knock out some of the Light Pollution.

You must demonstrate for me your procedure soon.

Not too shabby, Croman! All from your LP backyard with security cam; simply amazing.
Great inspiration to fellow urban astro nuts.

Cripes! Nice work, sir.

thanks guys. I think if I learn how to integrate dark frames these will get better. Joe, there is not a tungsten option. I am looking into one of the Orion Skyglow filters. Maybe that will help? Right now the only filter I have fitted onto the camera is a Baader UV/IR cut filter.
