Description

This is the first LHaRGB image I have taken with my own equipment, and it turned out better than I thought it would with such low integration time. I am glad I set things to cycle through each filter over and over or I'd have ran out of time and not gotten all of the exposures I needed to get an image due to how late it was when I got this one up and running. I also forgot to take any flats on this, so oops. Nothing like Bortle 1 skies in Texas though!
