Notes

Hardly enough frames were captured this evening to make a viable image. In spite of the noise the central star and a hint of the red outer halo can be seen. More integration badly needed!

    Integration time (running total):
    * L 6 X 120s (12m)
    * R 7 X 120s (14m)
    * G 6 X 120s (12m)
    * G 7 X 120s (14m)
    * Total: 52m
