Another clear night! Temperature range was +20C to +14C with no wind (session from 2200 to 0500). Tonight I did additional frames on NGC 7008, NGC 7048, and NGC 7635. I also imaged IC 1470 -- I have never seen colour that intense on a nebula before!

The NGC 7048 image represents a new record for number of frames combined: 253! The Aug 11/12 image of NGC 7023 (136x60s) holds the record for my longest exposure image: 136 minutes. Wow!


NGC 7008 85 minutes (170 x 30s)
