M16 - Eagle Nebula - 24-09-2018

Messier 16 - The Eagle Nebula

 

The place where stars are born, and one of the first nebulae I can remember seeing on a nasa poster I had when I was a kid. So actually being able to produce this on my camera sensor was a bit of a childhood dream (I never knew I had) coming true.

 

Equipment:

 

Skywatcher 150PDS

Celestron Advanced VX Mount

ZWO ASI183MM Pro CMOS

Baader 3.5 nm HA Filter

Touptek Guide Cam

Orion Mini 50mm Guide Scope

 

Expusures:

 

Because my settings in sharpcap (the program I use to capture) isn't set properly, I don't know the exact settings i used, other than that they are between 2-4 minutes and that I took 20 of the.
