Heart Nebula

Here's another wide field Hubble palette nebula, this time the Heart Nebula taken with an FSQ and ASI 1600MM Cool, All images unguided on a 10 mincron GM2000

Stunning image. Very nicely done. Have you more info on the gain settings, image time etc?

Thanks Richard, I have the gain set low with highest dynamic range. This allows me to take relatively long sub-exposures. I confess I took this last December, but had to wait till now to post "in season"  It was around 8 hours total

A wonderfully sharp  image, and I love the Hubble palette on this subject.  I must confess if I could produce something this good I don’t think I could wait 12 months to post it.

Hey Tomato, I have been very guilty over the last couple of years, holding onto data, so hopefully more to come!
