The Rosette Nebula from last night.

[kingboya]

Taken with the Ed80 and other equipment from my signature, through some misty spells so not ideal conditions by any means.

21 frames of 300 seconds using the modded canon 1000D guided.

Stacked in DSS and processed in CS3. This is the first time I have had a go with star masks, so please tell me what you think and ways to improve. Thanks for taking the time to have a look.

Looks very nice! What stacking parameters did you use in DSS?

I stacked all lights because I went through all of my subs with a fine tooth comb. What parameters are you referring to?

Nice one Plenty of detail

Thankyou. I like your work Gina (quick sideline....are you getting on with the 314L or would you want a bigger chip like the 383L in hindsight)?

The stacking method e.g average, median, kappa sigma etc... And also for RGb did you use per channel?

Honestly, I simply use the default settings, whatever they are. I didn't knowingly use RGB per channel, I just put the lights, darks and bias into DSS and watch it do its magic!

[kingboya]

Ah my default setting was median

[kingboya]

Lights were average, darks median and bias median

I'm finding the 314L+ to be excellent Of course, a bigger chip would be nice but I'm quite happy with this compromise. I expect I shall upgrade later when I have saved up sufficient funds.
