Horsehead and Flame Nebulae

This image was taken over 3 nights as I was struggling to get to grips with guiding for the 1st time. The green and blue data was very poor, I think there was probably some condensation on the chip, hence the halos. I will revisit this winter.

Scope: William Optics ZS66 doublet with AstroPhysics 0.67 telecompressor. Guided by Skywatcher ED80.
