Getting closer alll the time....
So I finally think I have something that I can call an Astroimage.
It's not the best, granted, but I'm happy with it from a beginners point of view!
It's M13 again, of course - I wanted to at least get something right-ish before moving onto somethng new.
12 subs of 30 seconds at ISO 800, processed in Registax with one 30s dark.
Here's the (cropped) result!
It's a little dim and lacking in vibrance, but I'm fairly pleased. I'm sure I can improve it with time, but for a beginner, it could be worse. Mix in the fact that there was a blooming great moon this evening, and it don't look too bad! Talking of the moon, I also gave the moon a quick stab. This is around 10 frames, 1/20s exposure on I can't remember what ISO. Stacked in Registax.
And cropped / enlarged in Photoshop CS5
I can just about discern the 'violet limb' that is expected from my scope, but I think I just about get away with it. Could do with better focus though....
