Darth Takahashi Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Here is approx. 3.5 Hour of H Alpha data on the Butterfly, IC1318 in Cyngus the Swan. The nebulosity is actual very close to the star Gamma Cygni which can be seen in the top right corner of the frame. There is a lot of nebulosity in this area with the Crescent not very far away and part of the same complex etc...Image capture using the BabyQ and the ST10Guiding by WO Megzres 72FD and Atik 16IC20x 600 sec via a Baader 7nm H Alpha filterAll processed using PI and Photoshop.

Darth Takahashi Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 Weather permitting I'll come back to this and add the missing OIII and SII data. Unfortunately, that might take another month!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael.h.f.wilkinson Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Nice one. I spotted the butterfly last year from a very dark site in France. Very low surface brightness object! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
