Rosette nebula HA canon 500d

[cardconvict]

The scope was a ED80,Mounted on a EQ6, Guided with a QHY5, Canon 500d full spectrum mod,filter astronomik HA 12nm filter

Subs 6 x 10 min at ISO 1600 stacked and processed in PS5.

I would of liked to got a lot more subs for this so i could pull a lot more detail out of this and kept the noise down, but the fog rolled in closing my night up good old British weather

Very nice indeed

That's an impressive image for 1 hour's worth of data - it may even take a little more sharpening to bring out the cusps a tad more, maybe try & see if it adds anything or not. The Rosette is an excellent narrowband target so I'd encourage you also to try & get some OIII & SII data as well if possible. The colours even with a HA/OIII combination can look very nice. Well done though on a very nice image.

Ok thank you martin for the advice here is another reprocess with more sharpness to the image i wouldn't like to push this data anymore until i can get some more subs to this.

The sharpening has added nicely to an already good capture. Not overdone and has increased the sense of depth. Very good!

Very good Rosette well done:)

hello thanks everyone for your warm comments and again i reprocessed this, thank you to martin for guiding me on a new way of processing for me with sharpness and here it is i hope you like

[Martin-Devon]

Yep, I think that's added a little extra "zing" to it. Do any sharpening in moderation though, especially if the data is a bit thin since it's easy to overdo it (...been there, done it...).

Well done though Ian
