Cygnus Wall...

[fatwoul]

Had a go at putting together a colour Cygnus Wall using data I gathered a week or two ago, and the darks I've spent two weekends gathering:

SW MN190 / Atik 4000 - x15 1200s HA, x10 1200s OIII, x6 1200s SII, x41 darks, x5 flats

Plenty wrong with it, but I'm quite pleased for my first colour image with the new camera. I think I like my 4000.

Well, I can only see from my phone ATM, but it looks fine to me. Well done!

Absolutely love the colour scheme, you've still got the hue of the greens coming through which can be lost when using the hubble palette Great capture and processing, I like it lots.

Cheers Matt. The sad thing is that I'm not sure I could duplicate the effect again. Fingers crossed...

I'm not surprised you like the 4000 if this is the type of image resolution you can get with it... . Even with my reduced Equinox 80 I'd need quite a few panes to get this FOV with the 314L+... Over MANY nights... I guess I'm simply going to have to try and save up for one after all...

That's a fantastic looking image!

[Mr Spock]

Lovely image. Great stuff!

[Quatermass]

That's looking very very nice indeed my SLR is looking very sad at the moment

[MidnightSun]

Great capture you got there....I'd stick w/ the 4000 awhile too...

Andy - A lot of objects sit really nicely in the FoV. I know the upcoming scope will offer me a much bigger field, but I'm glad I don't have to sell my MN190, as I think I've finally got it to behave itself, and the combination of 4000 and MN190 feels very natural.

Thanks Will and Michael - glad you like it.

Mark - Your SLR is not so sad. What the 4000 has in QE, your camera is bound to make up for in vast, rolling field of view.

Dave - Ohh, the 4000 is going nowhere. I'll be honest, part of me wishes I'd kept hold of the 314L+ for those smaller objects like planetaries (and not having to even bother with dark frames sometimes!), but the 4000 definitely feels like a grown-up camera, and I think it's already forced me to up my game a little. I'm really glad of the challenge, and I think I have a few more challenges on the horizon...

Wow! That's wonderful - such beautiful colour - quite amazing

I think I like your 4000 too, maybe you would like to send it on a long holingday to north yorkshire its a great image hope you can keep the colours if you add more data.
