Nice image! One of my favourite planetary nebulas to image because it's looks mystical!

Your on your way to the DARK side and your journey will be complete once you start taking FLATS...

[asteele3]

haha, yes is it worth taking these darks and flats even for a single 30 second exposure?

Best colour version yet of M27.

What number of lights, darks etc did you capture this with.? Oh and what iso was you on.? Tell me more..!

[asteele3]

No lights, no darks, ISO 1600. 30 second exposure.

[Andy P]

Wow.! And you got this image... What was your site like for LP.?

[asteele3]

I used a Astronomik CLS clip for Canon EOS camers. Basically it's a light pollution filter and it turns the image a blue shade but it is a very effective filter. I reckon it was because of this filter that enabled to get the vibrant colour of M27.

[Andy P]

Oh I see... I haven't yet got a LPF for mine but have been trying to adjust my picture to match yours.. I wondered how you was getting that blue.? LPF is on my Christmas list..

[asteele3]

I've tried to adjust the colour?

[asteele3]

Colours are more deep

[Gina]

Nice Now if you can get more subs to help with the noise background you should get an excellent image - great start

Very nice 30s M27 ;-) Where's the best deal for Astronomik CLS clip for Canon EOS ?

[Gina]

I use the Astronomik CLS clip filter - completely stops LP from sodium or mercury street lights

I bought mine second hand for £72. New they'd cost £110 altogether which gave me a saving of £38!

[Andy P]

Money well spent..
