M33 Triangulum Galaxy - OSC Camera

[Coco]

Glad to be imaging again

At last a decent run of 2 hours (24 lights x 5mins) with the ATIK 428 colour camera, I really should take another 2-3 hours when I get a chance to get more spiral arms out of M33,noise being a problem stretching the detail out the image, there just isnt enough subs. On the whole I'm happy with the way things are..

Thanks for looking..

Hi Guy,nice image,how are you keeping?

Longtime no see.

How is your new scope performing?

You going to keep this one?

I continue to be impressed with the OSC images that I see, nicely done Guy. I think it's a little bright in the middle though?

looking good guy, i have 3hrs on this already and need 2 more but the clouds and work arnt being nice to me

Well done Guy - to get even 2 hours in at the moment is quite an achievement, and the OSC M33 you've posted is really nice - lots of lovely colour in there so you've certainly optimized how to handle these type of CCDs.

Very strong in colour and depth and in remarkably little time. Very convincing indeed.

Not too bad at all Guy, and actually the first image I have noticed from the colour 428 (I have the mono version).

With another few hours the noise will reduce a lot, and you may be able to bring out more of the star colour too in this rich area. The background gradients are always a bit tricky with M33 due to its nature.

Cheers

Well this weather better get a shifty on or I'll be turning the scope onto our feathered friends..

Absolutely! I'm beginning to wonder if I've be pouring thousands of pounds into a white elephant It's fun tinkering but so frustrating when it's clear for once in a week or more and you get on target, guiding all set up and ready to go, you get a handful of smashing subs and then the clouds come back and that's the end of that.

That's really nice - great detail in the spiral arms...

Looking great matey - hopefully this cold, clear spell gives you the opportunity for some extra data. Wish the moon would get out of the way.

best regards, Rob
