Helen 4,089 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Last night was the first time this season that I've managed to see Orion (my south-east horizon is blocked by some huge oak trees ). So I thought I'd give the horsehead and flame a go. Unfortunately it clouded over after only 6x5min subs. So here's a short head!Atik460 colour, WO FLT123 with 0.8 FR, Hutech IDAS filterGuided (with a WO Megrez90 and ATik 16ic) and captured in Maxim. Stacked in DSS, and finished in photoshop.I think getting loads more subs for this target (and learning to control Alnitak) is my project for the next few weeks.HelenEdit: uploading this seems to have muted the colours and added a lot of noise 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Dean 41 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Great start Helen, I aways leave it to late to image this target and weather conditions spoil its protential. Dean Link to post Share on other sites
