I was able to gather some photons this past Sunday on this girl. Again, to hopefully dial in the focus a bit more and to improve the dynamic range on the past data. I then combined it with the data from the past.

New data includes 5 x 60s, and 3 x 120s, 3 x 300s and 2 x 600s

Taken with the Atik 383 OSC

scopes: Celestron C8 SCT w/MOTOFOCUS FR/FF(s): Starizona SCT Corrector
