Description

NGC6744 in Pavo
This is another one from last week taken with the Moravian C5-150M through the ASA AZ1500.
I don´t know why but over the years everytime I try to image this galaxy the seeing is bad.
It went up to something like 1.6" during the session and that can get a bit blurry with 9m of focal lenght.
Anyway Bxt did a very good job on this and I thing the outcome is quite ok.
Again I used Starsikes Pro to fix the rotating spikes of tha Alt/Az telescope, usually a no go for me but here it really helps to produce an aesthetically more pleasing image.
Hope you like it.
Wolfgang
