Details:
I have always found Caldwell 63 / NGC 7293, the Helix nebula in Aquarius, a very elusive object in semi-urban skies, and especially from indoors! In fact, I have never before seen it or imaged it. So last night I did another 880 sec (total) (80X11 sec) exposure from the window-sill of its position. 880 sec is about the maximum I can do with my relatively unsophisticated drives. Although there was little to be seen on the raw frames, this magically appeared after some processing with GIMP.
