The Eye of God in Aquarius


Despite being very low on the horizon at this latitute I wanted to give it a try!
For 4 nights from 22º to 28º altitude I managed to get 10 hours of data in 10 min subs.
Here the data:

Celestron C9.25 + FR
QSI532WS-M1 @ -15ºC
Atlas mount

Ha: 350 min
OIII: 250 min

My inspiratIon image was the one from the HST from 2007 :-).

Cheers,
paulo
