  1. Cheers... Two house moves in two years etc... Just getting back into it.
  2. I managed to combine the 4 hr 50 mins of Ha with 3 hrs of one shot rgb. I think the result is an OK rendition of an extraordinary bit of sky. It looks a bit like hell, I'm glad I can't see it with my eyes!
  3. 29 X 10 min, HA filter, iso 1600, dithered. Stacked in DSS, processed in PS. Star 71 and 150D. I'll try adding it to some RGB data when I can remember how to do it! 🤣
  4. NGC 6914 is at the centre of the image but is much too small at this magnification. Fiery skies though. 36 X 5 min, iso 800, flats and bias, dithered. DSS and PS. Might try and add some HA tonight is it stays clear.
  5. Thanks, Life has just been 'life'! 😂 And the weather is just being 'weather'. Don't know when the next clear night will be! 🤔
  6. What with two moves and the ups and downs of life, this is my first post for well over a year. And like a fool, I chose my nemesis, the Iris nebula to get back in the saddle and ended up producing my longest exposure, 13 hours over 3 nights, ever! Star 71, 100D. 6 hours of 10 minute exposures with UHC filter, iso 1600, and seven hours of 5 min exposure, iso 400, no filters. Flats and bias, dithered. I have always found this one difficult to process... but it's my best attempt at Iris so far... DSS and PS used to stack and process the subs.
  7. Thanks Giovanni, Yes, I used the Badder MPCC. You can get the Skywatcher one as well though I have only used the Baader one. Stay safe!
  8. I added some 3 year old one shot RGB data to some Ha (3.5 hrs, iso 800, 10 min subs) that I got a few nights ago. I lost some fov because of misaligned images, but not too bad overall. It's nice to give old images a bit of a boost! 😁
  9. This is my last imaging for a bit and it didn't go all to plan, with some guiding issues and noisy subs. 22 x 10 min, iso 800, ha filter. The Veil is the remnants of a Supernova some 8000 years ago. The Star was 20 times larger than our own Sun. The diameter is enormous, estimated at 130 light years.
  10. Congrats.... that's about 2000% better than my first attempt! 👍
  11. I managed to do a better job this time... Here is original post:- Here is version 2...
  12. I have no idea! I always get that with bright stars. Sometimes its a nuisance because you get long spikes from stars that are not even in the image 😲😲 .
  13. This is 43 X 5 min, iso 1600, UHC filter, Flats, bias and dithered. Stacked in DSS and processed in PS. I really like this bit of sky! 🙂
  14. I got 3 hrs of one shot RGB, 6 X 5 min, iso 400, last night and added it to some Ha I got a couple of years ago. Hence the star spikes don't match and and lost much of the image because both the images were out of orientation. Better than nothing though! It will look OK on a phone 🤣 🤣 Stay safe...
  15. I usually start at 5 mins, iso 400, no filters, and if the histo is too far to the right, reduce it.
