Crescent - a cry answered

[Jessun]

A while back I cried out for a mono camera as I struggled to pull out any Ha data from my Crescent OSC image.

So this is really what made me do the jump to mono, and sure, that red Atik tin can does cost, but it really has lifted my experience and joy with astrophotography.

Here is the original OSC data, 2 hours and 20 minutes with a Ha layer, 2 Hours and 40 minutes. As always the SW120 did the RBG and the SW80 the Ha.

Registar worked at first go, so I'm still puzzled what I do wrong in there sometimes...

Thanks fo looking, and any pointers appreciated. I have only owned a mono camera for four days now so help is most welcome.

Very impressive!

Well, you've managed to capture the Soap Bubble - most visible in the Ha data about two inches up from the bottom on the far left side of the image :)

I wasn't aware of that! Sould have tweaked that area then...

PS, this is all made using the OLV OAG from you guys, and it is brilliant!
