Axel,

Ive viewed that one visually, and it sure is faint.  Youve struck an
excellent balance between neblosity and sky darkness.

Hi all,

here is another 3-image stack from my recent South Africa/Namibia trip:

http://canopus.physik.uni-potsdam.de/~axm/photo.cgi?Image=images/ic2948

This nebula is located 7° SE of the famous Eta Carinae nebula. Guiding was
done with my Super Polaris DX mount and an ST-4 autoguider. Making them
work together took a lot of practice due to the large Dec backlash, but
towards the end of my trip I had gradually learned to tame them!

Clear skies,

Axel
