ICI434 -- The Horsehead and Flame Nubulas in Orion
My first attempt with my new-to-me SBIG ST-8300m. I'm really pleased how well the camera performs with the Orion filter wheel and 1.25" filers. I was expecting a lot more vignetting. I'm hoping to add some color data to this soon.

SBIG ST-8300m camera, Astro-Tech AT65EDQ 65mm f/6.5 refractor, Astronomik 1.25" Ha filter, Orion Nautilus 7x1.25" motorized filter wheel, Losmandy G11 Gemini-2 mount. 30 x 5 minute sub-frames, 30 averaged darks, 30 averages bias frames, no flats.
