M13 Tal and Nikon D50

[Kaptain Klevtsov]

Slightly out of focus this one, must make the pier higher so that I don't have to crawl under the camera to see the preview screen.

15 shots at ISO200 60 seconds at prime focus using the D50 on the Tal 200K. Stacked in Registax and Photoshoped.

M13 looks odd against a blue sky....

Either that or wait 'till it got cloudy.

Tried to process out the blue but it went all wrong. Stars all wierd colours or missing altogether. I could have seperated the stars, then made a black background then stuck the stars back on but I thought that might be too false. Might as well just draw the stars on in Photoshop then.

I quite like it too Steve, odd but nice.

Pretty nice effect against a seemingly dawn sky KK. It is real. but surreal ifg you know what I mean. I like it very much.

Given the lightness of the sky, I reckon you've done very well to capture that one, and with that amount of detail.

Nice going!!

I know that method! It's called 'astro exercise'. I don't know if you have the July S@N but if so check out my letter under that heading on page 25.

Next on the agenda is a book.....Health and Fitness the Astronomers Way..
