Due to a series of mishaps I only managed to get 15 x 20-minute subs on this one last night using the Sky 90s (should have got 27 x 20-mins). This is the IC2087 region in Taurus – and is … Continue reading
A couple of clear hours after a day of rain allowed me to grab a quick 2-framer of the Aldebaran & Hyades region with the 200mm lens. 5-minute subs and an hour on each frame. Pleased just to be able … Continue reading
