Hi

No much chance the last 5-6 weeks for imaging since its
been so cloudy. A few weeks ago it did clear long enough
to capture 24 5 minute exposures of M1 using a Canon 1Ds at
ISO 1250. I did not compensate for red extinction by the
atmosphere and the rae images were taken with a 3/4 moon.
More details are available in the caption under the image.

I would like try M1 again using H-alpha, H-beta, and OIII
filters with the 1Ds. This will need to wait for clear skies.
