M27 and NGC7635

[Glider]

I recently bought an Atik 16IC second hand.

Here is M27 in 2 hours Ha and 2 hours OIII, all 5 minute subs.

NGC7635 is 2 hours of 5 minute subs in Ha.

Nicely done. I'm firing away in HA (and OIII) at the Bubble tonight, too. It really is a nice target, isn't it? It also seems to be one of the best-kept secrets in astrophotography, because whenever I've idly browsed in the past, it doesn't seem to be something anyone makes a fuss about.

Is your 16IC a colour chip? Is that why the image is that deep red?

(EDIT: Sorry silly question - I see from your profile it is a mono sensor)

Cheers, it's a mono chip, colour is courtesy of Noel's Actions, B&W to false Ha.

Ah gotcha. Not tried that yet. Looks like a similar crop to that which I am using, so let me know if you want more HA subs (480sec in my case) of the bubble. :-)

looks a great effort Noel, i`m impressed, loads of detail, how easy was the camera to use, and did you guide with the webcam ?

[Glider]

The Atik software is very easy to use.

Yes, I guided with the webcam.
