The Bubble Nebula Semi-Successful
When I say semi-successful, I mean that I found my target and got the camera snapping away at it. However I only managed to get a tiny hint of the elusive object on the picture. Even with a whole bunch of 90 second exposures you can hardly make out the bubble and have decided not to upload the result. I'll have another attempt at it next winter but it does seem a difficult target for SLR camera's which are not very good at showing Hydrogen Alpha (which the bubble nebula is primarily made of).
