Planetary Nebulae NGC1514/PK-205 The Medusa Nebulae

[astro mick]

Hi.

Out last night,with my ED 72 Scope and Atik 414ex camera.

First target was the faint blue Planetary Nebulae NGC1514 in Taurus.This is an RGB image of 6x550 secs for each filter.Flat Frames and Bios Frames were applied.

A bit later in the night as Gemini started to rise,i turned the scope onto PK-205,better known as the Medusa Nebulae.This image is a Narrowband image of 9x550 secs in H-Alpha,and 9x550 secs in O111.Again calibration frames were applied. 

It was nice to image these planetary Nebulae,as its something I have,nt done before.

Cheers.

Mick.

Yes should make a nice target in your scopes.
