Eta Carina area with clusters, with Hutech-modified Canon 5D camera with 135mm f/2 Canon L lens at f/4 for 6 minutes each at ISO400. Stack of 4 exposures, averaged stacked. Taken from Queensland, Australia, June 2006.
NGC 3766, the Pearl Cluster, at top and the Lambda Centauri nebula, aka the Running Chicken Nebula or IC 2948, at the bottom. This is a stack of 2 x 7-minute exposures at ISO 800 with the original filter-modified Canon 5D through the Asrtro-Physics Traveler refractor at f/6. Taken from Coonabarabra, NSW, Australia.
The False Comet Cluster area of southern Scorpius, which includes the open cluster NGC 6231 and emission nebula IC 4628, and open cluster NGC 6242 at top. This is a superb binocular field. I shot this March 30/31, 2014 from Coonabarabran, NSW, Australia using the Borg 77mm astrographic apo refractor (330mm focal length) at f/4.3 for a stack of 5 x 10 minutes exposures with the filter-modified Canon 5D Mark II at ISO 800.
