M22 from Huntsville


This is M22, a showpiece globular cluster in Sagittarius, just left of the tip-top of the archer's bow. The image is 8.25 minutes (all the frames that were worth saving) of 15" exposures with the XTi through the AT66ED, unguided on the LXD75. Processing and stacking was done in Nebulosity 1 and some modest adjustments in Canon's DPP.

Usually I don't leave comments, I'm just sort of amazed. This one is really awesome, too! Okay, I'll stop now, just assume the rest are good.
