And yet another Makarian's chain LRGB

[Mike Hawtin]

This one uses new  luminance of 30 x 1200 sec subs along with RGB taken last year, all with a QHY9m and Borg 71FL @ F/4.  The colour data is 12 x 900 sec red, 10 x 900 sec green and 13 x 900 sec blue.  The long L subs were used to try to pick up the IFN in the field but although there are indications of it I'm not confident that my DBE model is truly accurate and without a deep reference image to work to I've not really pushed the background.  Anyway here it is along with an annotated extracted Lum for interest.

Thanks for looking.

A true work of art. Inspirational indeed. Did you put the lables too?

I think that looks excellent,  the colour is really coming through on this version.

Very nice image of the wide field target of the moment.

Great image, thanks for sharing.

Well and truly fuzzy (in the best possible sense).  Lovely deep image.  There is some uneveness in the background which might be integrated flux

Very nice wide field image.

Excellent image, I could spend hours zooming around in this.

That is really impressive Mike!

I think that bringing out that IFN also brought out more galaxies. Interesting to compare it to Olly's recent post. They both have extreme qualities.

Absolutely lovely image, best colour I have seen of Markarian's chain.

Thank you all for your very kind remarks and for taking the time to comment.  Alacant the annotation is done with a Pixinsight script.

 

Thanks again
