I am in the process of upgrading my observatory server, and it has really been a battle. After hours of futile efforts with bad cords, bad connections, and bad configurations, with a clear, mild night disappearing in front of my eyes, I finally had to pull out the laptop and shoot a simple subject.
I am still experimenting with 10 minute subs in H-alpha. This subject (M-16) is an easier target than my intended target, but it was good practice anyhow.
If my primary plans don't work out again, I may go back for a couple of hours more on this guy before he disappears behind the neighbor's trees.
I think that this image is less noisy than my previous 5-minute sub shots.
