Finally got around to
butchering processing a couple of images from Sunday night folks. The first was taken with a 135mm lens set at f4, mounted on my AstroTrac and my Kenko 'Halpha' filter, a combination of four, 3-minute each, light frames
The view shows two bright stars (Mu Geminorum to the left & Eta Geminorum to the right). The open cluster M35 is uppermost with IC443 between the two bright stars & the often overlooked NGC2174 (in Orion) nearest to the bottom (often described as a mini Rosette nebula).
The second is a crop taken on Sunday night with a cheap Paragon 500mm f8 lens mounted on my AstroTrac and a combination of four, two minute each, exposures using a new set up I was experimenting with which allows me to mount a 6X30 finderscope and camera at the same time. There were some flexure problems which I have yet to perfect - but this set up certainly made locating & framing M13 a breeze!
The lens is a cheap one so the resolution wasn't as good as, say, a Takahashi.
I therefore sharpened it a bit in PS.
No filter was used - not did I take any darks or flats.
