NGC4755 - The Jewel Box

[Djt]

Hi

thought you might be interested in this.

The Jewel box sits in Crux and is pretty spectacular in an eyepiece.

This was captured using MaximDL and processed in PixInsight. Not much was done in terms of processing but as the stars are fairly young I boosted the blues a little as in its basic processed state they were pretty much white (so shorter subs needed?)

location  - Sydney

gear

GSO RC10a Truss (first light)

Moravian G2 8300 with astronomiks filters

AP900 mount

Image data, RGB 24:24:24 in 3 minute subs

Cheers
