M57 - The Ring Nebula

Skunk Hollow Observatory

M57 - The Ring Nebula. Shot using a SuperCharged Meade LX200 10" @ f/7.15 and SBIG ST-2000XM with SBIG AO7. 70 minutes (14 x 5 minutes) luminance at 1x1 binned. Image scale is .85 arcseconds per pixel. Acquired using CCDOps. Dark and flat field frames applied. Self guided by SBIG AO7. Very little post processing. Seeing was horrible. Transparency was not very good either. 3rd magnitude stars and brighter visible.
