Summary
[edit]DescriptionM45 - Pleiades.jpg |
I got outside with the telescope over the weekend, albeit only briefly. I took the opportunity to finally image M45, something I'd not gotten round to previously. I wasn't really in the mood for it, and unfortunately that led to me taking some shortcuts and the final image suffered somewhat because it. I didn't accurately level or polar align the mount, so in the 6 minute-long exposures I ended up taking, there was some rotation of the field, so the stars towards the edge of the image were obviously elongated. The image above is significantly cropped from the full image, so thankfully it's not noticeable. Still, I intend to re-visit this target in the future! Takahashi FSQ85 f/5.3 + Canon 500D at prime focus, guided using Equinox ED80 + QHY5, 11 x 6m00 subs, captured using EOS Utility, stacked in DeepSkyStacker. |
