3ggman Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Imaged on many different nights over the last two months or so. Processing has been really tough and ended up dumping about 6hrs of Lum data that was giving me strange results, I used only 10hrs of 16 collected (I will return to this, one day), Star colour is a little bit strange on some of the smaller stars if you look closely (might not be apparent in the scaled down image). I keep getting pink and purple stars no matter what way I combine them (RGB) or process them. One other thing I noticed was that some of the blue stars were already clipped even before I began processing the RGB, not sure why, the sub lenght was 10mins, which seems to be a pretty normal sub exposure for RGB.I am quite pleased with the final result even though the lum is not as obvious as I hoped it would be (that is probably my processing)One thing is for sure, I need to get a reducer for the scope.Details: total 28hrs 10minsHa - 38 x 1200sL - 40 x 900sR - 12 x 600sB - 12 x 600sG - 9 x 600s (discarded 3 due to clouds)Thanks for looking and any advice or comments are always welcome.Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark72 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Try to register in PixInsight - it takes longer but may help sometimes to get the star colours rightMark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
