Kaptain Klevtsov Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Happy Birthday Kai.As for the image, exposure looks good, tracking looks good, framing looks good, it's just a hair out of focus. Good focus on a DSLR is a black art that I have managed three times by accident. The core? Well it will always do that if you're going to get wispy bits, the dynamic range in M42 makes it a burger to image if you want the core AND the wispies.BTW I put together a "how-to" on DSLR focusing and still can't get it to work. It's in the learning zone bit I think, so that might give you some tips. It's written by a non-expert who can rob loads of ideas and put them in one place without having tried any of them.

robindurant Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Hi Kai Herb An observation if I may. I am a Watercolour Artist and some times teach learners and many times I hear them say that the painting they have produced is rubbish. I alway reply that to them it may look rubbish but to others, who do not paint, your are a Van Gogh. As a parallel to astronomy I think that it is unbelievable that anyone can take any picture of an object the size of a grain of sand, in space. Show your pic to your friends, they will think that your are a genius and stop comparing your work with the Rembrandts of Astronomy, if you get my meaning. If I compared my paintings with some other artists I would probably pack it all up. But no, I am satisfied that I enjoy my work, and pleased with my limited efforts.

Astroman Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Looks like M42 combined with Eta Carina! Call it a composite and someone will buy it at the fair. Great first effort, Kai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
