RCW158

This is a small red dot in a sea of dark dust. I thought its worth a look while The next target rises. As it not much of a target I have only shot for one night. The dark lines of the dust show up very well.

QHY183 C -10 60 shots over 1 night .
600 sec each shot.

It is not as simple as it may look but the results are worth it. Been a long road but I am over the hill on to the flat. Many thanks.

Thank you next will be one of the best if I could only get closer but I have to be patient and wait for the focuser so I can use the bigger scope.
