M27

I took up astro photography in January 2010, and after a steep learning curve and slowly acquiring gear when I can afford it, I have a simple(ish) low(ish) cost set up.

 

This is my second image taken after I had the IR filter removed from my camera, taken over several nights due to having to wait for the target to emerge from behind trees at around 2am.

 

EQ5 Mount, Canon 1000d, Baader MPCC, Astronomic CLS filter on skywatcher 6" reflector. Guided with skywatcher ST80 & QHY 5.
