Messier 53 in Coma Berenices 2020-03-27

Aberkenfig, South Wales

Lat +51.542 Long -3.593

 

Skywatcher 254mm Newtonian Reflector, Olympus E410 at prime focus. EQ6 Syntrek Mount.

 

A somewhat better effort than my last attempt in April 2019.

 

21 x 50s at 800 ISO.

Also 10 dark frames.

 

Imaging session commenced at 01:25 UT.

 

Processed with Deep Sky Stacker and final levels adjusted with G.I.M.P.

 

The image displays coma towards the edges. This is one drawback of a parabolic f/4.8 Newtonian.
