Hi all

Had a go at the Helix neb last night. Although It did get windy I decide that after spending two hours setting up I wasn't going home emty handed.
This was shot through a SXV-H9C and a WO 105 ED guided on a G11 mount and the exposures were 10min x 12.
All coments and advice welcomed!

Great work Louie! 8)
This one seems to take quite a bit of exposure time before it starts showing up its beauty... wink
