The Ring - M57

Preliminary processing has produced this.  Not enough data (time / exposure) to get any detail, but OK for 7 x 120 seconds exposures. Three exposures had too much drift in the guiding, or low contrast, high FWHM, etc. to stack.  There is just enough detail to show the star in the middle, which lights up the nebula from within.  No other processing except stacking 7 images in MaximDL.
