My image of the Elephant's Trunk nebula taken with my 1300G DSLR Canon camera mounted on my 80ED APO Skywatcher telescope with a field flattener. The telescope was mounted on an EQ5 GOTO mount. Settings were 50s exposure and 1600ISO. I captured 150 images, 30 flat frames and 25 dark frames. All were stacked in Sequator and processed in GraXpert and StarNet++, and finished off in Gimp 2.10. I used an intervalometer to control the camera and a Bahtinov mask to focus on a bright star.
