NGC1499 Ha

[Paxo]

Not done any deep sky imaging for over 3 years.  A few changes in personal circumstances have meant a new lease of life back into the hobby.  So here's 80 minutes worth of 10 minute unguided Ha subs using an SX H36 camera through a Tak FSQ106 mounted on a Paramount MX+.  Taken on Friday evening when I had to be up early on Saturday to get the train down to London to attend Astrofest.  Calibrated the image with some flats, bias and darks taken on Sunday Morning.

Minimal processing (trying to remember how to use Pixinsight) so stacked in DSS, some basic stretching in PS.  I'm happy I'm back in the saddle again.  I think I'll try and add some more data to this one before the winters out.

Thanks for looking

That is very atmospheric.

That's why I like the monochrome image.......that and too much light pollution for RGB.
