Eta Carinae

[Paxo]

Following on from SteveL's magnificent Ha image of Eta Carinae, I had a go at colour imaging the same subject (now the moon is not so much of an influence)

Date obtained remotely from Moorook Australia using a Tak Sky 90 using a SBIG ST-2000XMC camera. Single shot colour 300 seconds exposure.

Processing in photoshop CS2

Enjoy, Steve

(Edit: Can't wait for SteveL to add the RGB data to is Ha)
