The LX200 and MallinCam Experiment - M57
Messier 57 was my second attempt at astrophotography. This DSO is Relatively bright and well within reach of the Meade LX200 I was lucky enough to have access to.
At this point in my experience, I didn't know whether to expect color in my photographs, but as it turns out, this particular MallinCam couldn't do long enough exposures to get any color. I forget exactly how many frames this particular video was, but probably several thousand. Stacked with Registax and then roughly processed in Photoshop.
