NGC 3372 Eta Carina Nebula

[Coolhandjo]

This is the first time I have imaged Eta Carina in Narrow Band.

The sky was at its best last night.

Sii:Ha:Oiii Hubble Pallete 40min:40min:40min

Atik 314L at -10deg, 8 inch Newt. HEQ6

I am amazed at how much detail the narrow band type imaging can give you over LRGB.

Comments welcomed.

Brilliant image ! I don't know much about astrophotography but I do know eta carinae. Where did you take the image from?

Corking image mate! Love how you have processed the colours and really like the framing! Top job fella.

Matt.

Oh and I love narrowband imaging also

[Coolhandjo]

Thanks Southernman and Matt. I imaged this from Sydney Australia.

I noticed the red wasn't present enough so I increased the red channel

Taken from Sydney excellent! Again a wonderful rendition of a southern DSO.

Good grief... - Simply awesome image... . I've literally just bought a 314L, but if I'm ever able to produce an image anything like this, I'll be gobsmacked... Wow...

[Coolhandjo]

Thanks Andy - I think you will find that the Atik 314L+ will not let you down! Its a super sensative, low noise camera that - when cooled below say -5degc, will produce fine images!
