Pillars & Mountains in the Pelicans neck

[toxic]

i am trying to go in more rather than wider if that makes sense 

i like to see as much detail as possible.

any way added more data to the pelican.

19 x 900 HA binn 1x1 --   8 x 600 OIII  binn 2x2--  7 x 600 S2 binn 2x2  --  R.G.B -6 x 300 each

dss - photoshop - lightroom

IC-5070 pillars and mountains.tif

thanks for looking and all comments welcome

Looks great - Lovely colours. I think if the framing had been a little better then this would have made quite a difference. It feels too low in the frame for me.

I really like the way you've got H555 captured so well.

I've been planning to try to capture it for a while and your image inspired me to try last night .. let's just say I got nothing useful datawise apart from in red and Ha and that didn't show up the jets at all.  Just to get a feel of what spectra the area produces I tried one of each Ha, OIII, SII , R , G, and B.  I'll have to try again in week or 10 days when the moon isn't such a pain and I can take the image times to something longer than 300s.   I will get a decent capture of that area ... in the meantime, I'll admire your efforts

your best bet till the sky gets darker is to just get HA then when the moon has gone get the OIII and S2 and RGB. i still want to get more data in HA

i managed to get another 3 hours of HA last night and i took your advice about framing as well i think it looks a lot different with the framing and more data but i will still add more to it.

please let me know what you think 

and thanks for the idea.

I think that framing looks much better Chris - In my opinion there was just too much space at the top and the Pelican seemed very lost at the bottom.

oh gosh that looks poo here is a png the jpeg looks poo.

hope this looks better

Just to put the cat among the pigeons - Sara raises a good point with regards to framing but on my instant/ionitial view skipped that and assessed what was there - some nice detail in the now cropped out area with the darker areas - maybe as an alternative version making them a little more eye grabbing would also work.  At the moment they are just kinda there, if made into a stronger feature, subject to the data allowing, the original would work.

The crop also excludes the bubble looking nebulosity to the left - its borderline if there is enough to stay in the shot but looks good if it can.

Overall nice work - well done.
