Running Chicken IC2944

Running Chicken  IC2944
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IC_2944

The Bad news is my focuser they could not fix, they could not undo the screws. The interesting part is I was able to undo them all myself. So I have to be content for a while with no focuser.

This is the a very large Nebula that is quite prominent in the Milky way. For the very first time I was able to see the planetary nebula just out to the right.

Shows up better in this shot the very small blue dot what is a planetary nebula Helix is another example of one..

Helix Nebula NGC 7293



My shot is with the nikon lens and I am still staggered the amount of detail in the shot.
