Pelican Nebula 2 Colour HA & OIII

[pyrasanth]

I have only the HA & OIII for the Pelican at present. I put them together & got the image below. Not sure about the colours but it's nice & bright.

Looks like a good start. The colours are certainly very bright. Thanks for posting.

I've not done anything to saturate the colours. These are literally as they have come out of the RASA. It is such a magic scope. Can't wait for the dark sky. It goes so deep that I get the results of 8 hours exposure which I had on the Edge 11" in less than an hour. I really like the halo's around the bright stars- nothing on the HA plate but on the OIII they are there. I finally got the secret of the OIII filter nailed. You need no moon, lots of frames & a good calibration frame. The noise can nearly be removed in ccdstack using a sigma noise removal tool.

The colours and the detail are good for sure - For me, halos have no place in an image so that spoils it for me. Just a personal opinion of course, if you really like them, then that's fine
