M27 with AstroDMx Capture for Windows

A Skymax 127 Maksutov telescope was mounted on a Celestron AVX mount. An SV305 camera was placed at the Cassegrain focus of the telescope.

Using AstroDMx Capture for Windows, fifteen x 50s exposures were captured as 16-bit Tiffs, with matching dark-frames. The frames were stacked in Deep Sky Stacker and post processed in the Gimp 2.10.
