RSM Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Iris Nebula taken over two nights earlier this week. combination of 8 min and 4 min guided subs totalling about 6 hrs exposure time, all at ISO 800 on my canon EOS 500D. Flats taken the following mornings of dawn skies. Stock calibration Bias and Darks used. Processed in PI; DBE, Histogram transformation, TGV noise reduction, SCNR(red), Curve transformation, Median and Linear Multiscale Processing. Hopefully I've not over processed. In addition to the illuminated gas clouds, I love the dark areas surrounding the core which blank out the background of stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokehoba Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Excellent image. The Iris nebula has always been one of my favourites too for the same reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really gives the feeling of looking down a tunnel of cloud - moody. Reminds me of the 70's Dr.Who titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
