M17 with an SVBONY SV305 camera and a Skywatcher Explorer 130 PDS 130mm, f/5 Newtonian.

A Skywatcher Explorer 130 PDS 130mm, f/5 Newtonian was mounted on a Celestron AVX GOTO mount. An SVBONY SV305 camera was placed at the Newtonian focus and 30 x 45s exposure were captured. The best 28 images were stacked in Autostakkert!3. The resulting image was post processed in the Gimp 2.10 and FastStone.

The SV305 is proving to be quite a capable camera.
