M1 - The Crab Nebula
M1 - The Crab Nebula
2006-11-14 
I had not planned to photograph the crab nebula for this night, but the night was quite nice and I had just bagged the galaxy NGC891, so I wanted to try out a nebula. The winds started to blow very hard (10m/s), so it turned out almost impossible to continue. But at least I have some room to improve on this object now :)
