Bubble Nebula - Bicolor with 8rc

[Mr_42tr0nomy]

Greetings,

So.. I decided to  combine  my data from the 8rc and 65mm together and I'm surprised that it worked. I had gathered 4.5 hours of Ha data on the bubble nebula a few months ago through the new 8rc. I had it guiding perfectly 7410but now im having major issues with the RC in particular. The 65mm apo (which is what i used to gather the Oiii data) guides very well on the other hand. Anyways, this image consists of Ha data from the 8rc and Oiii data from the 65mm. I plan on getting 15 more hours of Oiii data for a final widefield shot as well. Hope you all enjoy!

That is a lovely atmospheric image.

Magical.

Very nice.  Yes, if you have software which will re-size an image you can definitely use data from different set ups, I do it all the time.

Very nice,

One thing is you could mix in some shorter exposures to stop the center of the bubble from blowing out.
