ollypenrice Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Very exciting. Deep and detailed. Maybe you could pull out more from the Trap, though, in Ha?Certain parts of M42 are quite different in Ha and this deep image really shows off those details. Great stuff.Olly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lensman57 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I love it . Amazing level of delicate detail, I have the same scope and it seems work with the new 0.6 X reducer . Will have to give it a try.Regards,A.G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uranium235 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 You've nailed the outer Ha, very nice. Perhaps multiple layer masks are needed to get down to the core. Typically, I find this whole area requires five or six masks to get down to the trap. There also seems to be a strange concentric circular artefact to the left edge of the image - any idea what that might be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sologuitarist61 Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 To be honest, if I could produce something half as good as this I would be extremely pleased with myself! The amount of detail is truly impressive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
