Astrophotography Planetary Nebula

Astrophoto: Owl Nebula – Messier 97 – 05/23

Messier 97 – the first half, about 2 hours, of collected light with my VISAC at 1800mm.

After months I finally finished configuring my motor focuser. I replaced the flexible coupler with one without backlash.

I bought the VC200L to able to photograph objects like planetary nebulae at 1800mm.
