More M81

[AstroAndy]

Hi all

Some data I added to the original one:

The 1st, original one:

LRGB 6x10m Luminance , 5x5m each RGB @bin2, no calibration, 2:15hrs worth of exposures, taken @ a dark site

The second one:

LRGB, 2x1510x10 3x5 3x3m Luminance, 8x5m each RGB @bin2, 43 flats for L, 30 for RGB, 30 bias,4:34hrs worth of exposures, medium LP.

The third one has 3.5hrs. worth of Ha thrown in:

LHaRGB (h alpha mapped to red) 2x1510x10 3x5 3x3m Luminance  7x30m h alpha, 8x5m each RGB @bin2, 43 flats for L, 30 flats for H alpha 30 for RGB, 30 bias 8:04hrs worth of exposures, medium LP, abt. half Moon.

Also, M81 isn't really an h alpha object, but I'm glad I managed 7x30m on it.

Oops, I meant to put this into the Deep Sky Imaging section, I must have slipped..can I ask a moderator to move it for me, or give me instructions on how to do it?

These are genuinely amazing.

They're what you'd paint for some ideal scifi galaxy picture.

The fact that they are photographs from your back yard is literally astounding.

Bravo!

Thanks, the first one was from a dark site, the added data in the second and third one were shot from home.
