[phatlad]

Using HA and OIII filter on a Atik 314L+ 15x600s subs of each i got this image last tuesday as myself and my friend tried out her new scope a Pentax 75mm. 

any comments welcome as i'm just getting into bi-colour imaging.

thanks for looking glen

Hi Glen,

Nice first light. Loads of faint stuff above the main Nebula and very well controlled colours.

Did you use noise reduction on it ?

Yes indeed, that's a great start - well done

Hi,

That is a great first try but if I were you I'd tone down the noise reduction a bit as the nebula has taken a creamy appearance.

yeah i think i spent to much time trying to clean looking background sky and forgot about the nebula, never mind gives me a reason to have another go at it.  

thanks for the advice
