M57 in Lyra another beginers DSO

[Ultrapenguin]

HI all, I turned my attention to M57 last night. Only having an EQ3-2 with no guiding I could only do 30 second subs but I stacked 3 of these together in DSS and got an image of M57, not magazine standard and a long way to go but for me a nice image :-)

Darks next.. then flats and it'll look very different!

The slight movement can be removed using deconvolution.

Thankyou guys, NickK can I ask what is deconvolution?

Nice start

M57 is a favourite of mine - and you're picking up inner detail already!

Overview of what convolution/deconvolution is:

Not bad at all. Very tricky is M57. You really need to get that scope guided.

Well done, not at all bad!!
